This paper presents a simple protocol that provides application processes with an approximate real-time notion. This time notion is very versatile. At one extreme, it behaves at l...
Communication overhead is one of the most important factors affecting the performance of message passing multicomputers. We present evidence (through the analysis of several paral...
: Software cache coherence schemes are very desirable in the design of scalable multiprocessors and massively parallel processors. The authors propose a software cache coherence sc...
Abstract. As the disparity between processor and memory speed continues to widen, the exploitation of locality of reference in shared-memory multiprocessors becomes an increasingly...
The next generation Grid will demand the Grid middleware to provide flexibility, transparency, and reliability. This implies the appliance of service level agreements to guarantee...
