In the last years high performance processor designs have evolved toward Chip-Multiprocessor (CMP) architectures that implement multiple processing cores on a single die. As the nu...
The probability of failures in software distributed shared memory (SDSM) increases as the system size grows. This paper introduces a new, efficient message logging technique, call...
The recent improvements in workstation and interconnection network performance have popularized the clusters of off-the-shelf workstations. However, the usefulness of these cluste...
This paper deals with the evaluation of acyclic Boolean conjunctive queries in relational databases. By well-known results of Yannakakis [1981], this problem is solvable in polynom...
The distribution of resources among processors, memory and caches is a crucial question faced by designers of large-scale parallel machines. If a machine is to solve problems with...
