The trend in workstation hardware is towards symmetric shared-memory multiprocessors (SMPs). User expectations are for (largely) automatic exploitation of parallelismon an SMP, si...
Writing parallel applications for computational grids is a challenging task. To achieve good performance, algorithms designed for local area networks must be adapted to the differ...

The running time of many applications is dominated by the cost of memory operations. To optimize such applications for a given platform, it is necessary to have a detailed knowled...
Embedded systems consisting of the application program ROM, RAM, the embedded processor core, and any custom hardware on a single wafer are becoming increasingly common in applicat...
Abstract. Improving the performance of the Web is a crucial requirement, since its popularity resulted in a large increase in the user perceived latency. In this paper, we describe...
