This paper presents a programming language for parallel computing based on code annotations. It has similar goals and philosophy as OpenMP but it is more tightly coupled to the ob...
We present a new result concerning the parallelisation of DBSCAN, a Data Mining algorithm for density-based spatial clustering. The overall structure of DBSCAN has been mapped to a...
We study integrated prefetching and caching in single and parallel disk systems. A recent approach used linear programming to solve the problem. We show that integrated prefetching...
The LOGFLOW parallel Prolog system is similar to the recent parallel database systems concerning its dataflow execution model and its capability of running on othing architectures...
We provide a method whereby, given mode and (upper approximation) type information, we can detect procedures and goals that can be guaranteed to not fail (i.e., to produce at leas...
