Abstract. Fine-grained lock protocols should allow for highly concurrent transaction processing on XML document trees, which is addressed by the taDOM lock protocol family enabling...
This paper describes the methodology and implementation of a data management system for highly distributed systems, which was built to solve the scalability and reliability proble...
In large-scale distributed systems, asynchronous communication and future objects are becoming wide spread mechanisms to tolerate high latencies and to improve global performances...
The Cell Broadband Engine (Cell BE) is a heterogeneous multi-core processor specifically designed to exploit thread-level parallelism. Its memory model comprehends a common shared ...
