The trend in workstation hardware is towards symmetric shared-memory multiprocessors (SMPs). User expectations are for (largely) automatic exploitation of parallelismon an SMP, si...
We propose, and justify, an economic theory to guide memory system design, operation, and analysis. Our theory treats memory random-access latency, and its cost per installed mega...
BSPlib is a small communications library for bulk synchronous parallel (BSP) programming which consists of only 20 basic operations. This paper presents the full de nition of BSPl...

We present strategies for parallelising ray tracing based on 5D adaptive subdivision. Our goals are to obtain good speed-up and to efficiently balance the load between the process...
