Autonomic management can be used to improve the QoS provided by parallel/distributed applications. We discuss behavioural skeletons introduced in earlier work: rather than relying...

In this paper we investigate protocols for scheduling applications that consist of large numbers of identical, independent tasks on large-scale computing platforms. By imposing a ...

The problem of merging two intransitive sorted sequences (that is, to generate a sorted total order without the transitive property) is considered. A cost-optimal parallel merging...
New biological experimental techniques are continuing to generate large amounts of data using DNA, RNA, human genome and protein sequences. The quantity and quality of data from t...
Tree contraction algorithms, whose idea was first proposed by Miller and Reif, are important parallel algorithms to implement efficient parallel programs manipulating trees. Desp...
