Modern scientific computing involves organizing, moving, visualizing, and analyzing massive amounts of data from around the world, as well as employing largescale computation. The...
This paper is the first extensive performance study of a recently proposed parallel programming model, called Concurrent Collections (CnC). In CnC, the programmer expresses her co...
Tightly coupled parallel applications are increasingly run in Grid environments. Unfortunately, on many Grid sites the ability of machines to create or accept network connections ...
We advocate an approach towards the characterisation of components where their qualifications are deduced systematically from a small set of elementary assumptions. Using the chara...
