Last years have witnessed how crowd simulations have become an essential tool for many virtual environment applications. These applications require both rendering visually plausib...
— Various mechanisms for fault-tolerance (FT) are used today in order to reduce the impact of failures on application execution. In the case of system failure, standard FT mechan...
Reconfigurable computing systems have developed the capability of changing the configuration of the reconfigurable coprocessor multiple times during the course of a program. Howev...
Scalability of applications on distributed sharedmemory (DSM) multiprocessors is limited by communication overheads. At some point, using more processors to increase parallelism y...
