— Applications raising in many scientific fields exhibit both data and task parallelism that have to be exploited efficiently. A classic approach is to structure those applica...
Recent digital signal processors (DSPs) show a homogeneous VLIW-like data path architecture, which allows C compilers to generate efficient code. However, still some special rest...
Today, large scale parallel systems are available at relatively low cost. Many powerful such systems have been installed all over the world and the number of users is always incre...
An empirical study of implementation tradeoffs (choice of ready queue implementation, quantum-driven vs. eventdriven scheduling, and interrupt handling strategy) affecting global ...
Scheduling tasks on large-scale computational grids is difficult due to the heterogeneous computational capabilities of the resources, node unavailability and unreliable network ...
