The underlying model of distributed systems is that of loosely coupled components r running in parallel and communicating by message passing. Description, construction and evoluti...
Abstract--Transactional Memory (TM) is an emerging technology which promises to make parallel programming easier. However, to be efficient, underlying TM system should protect only...
Despite using high-speed network interconnection systems like InfiniBand, the communication overhead for parallel applications is still high. In this paper we show, how such costs...

Abstract. We explore a new general-purpose heuristic for nding highquality solutions to hard optimization problems. The method, called extremal optimization, is inspired by self-or...
