We want to perform compile-time analysis of an SPMD program and place barriers in it to synchronize it correctly, minimizing the runtime cost of the synchronization. This is the b...
Lock-freedom is a progress guarantee that ensures overall program progress. Wait-freedom is a stronger progress guarantee that ensures the progress of each thread in the program. ...
This paper describes the design goals and current status of tidier, a software tool that tidies Erlang source code, making it cleaner, simpler, and often also more efficient. In ...
Abstract. A number of individual bioinformatics applications (particularly BLAST and other sequence searching methods) have recently been implemented over clusters of workstations ...
REX is a program that extracts parasitic resistance and capacitance values for nodes in VLSI layouts. REX also performs network serial and parallel simplifications. Two types of n...
