Abstract. In recent years, there has been a surge of interest in Javabased volunteer computing systems, which aim to make it possible to build very large parallel computing network...
PVM and other distributed computing systems have enabled the use of networks of workstations for parallel computation, but their approach of treating all networks as collections o...
Fast hardware turnover in supercomputing centers, stimulated by rapid technological progress, results in high heterogeneity among HPC platforms, and necessitates that applications...
The emergence of heterogeneous many core architectures presents a unique opportunity for delivering order of magnitude performance increases to high performance applications by ma...
Heterogeneous users usually have different requirements as far as consistency of shared data is concerned. This paper proposes and investigates a mixed consistency model to meet t...
