This paper proposes the study of a new computation model that attempts to address the underlying sources of performance degradation (e.g. latency, overhead, and starvation) and th...

Fault tolerant distributed protocols typically utilize a homogeneous fault model, either fail-crash or fail-Byzantine, where all processors are assumed to fail in the same manner....
Recent work in high-performance computing has shifted attention to PC clusters.. For PC-clusters, member nodes are independent computers connected by generalpurpose networks. The ...
Designing distributed real-time systems as being composed of communicating objects offers many advantages with respect to modularity and extensibility of these systems. However, d...
This paper presents a modeling method particularly suited to analyze interactions between Message Passing Interface MPI library execution and distributed cache coherence protocol....
