The Linux cluster considered in this paper, formed from shuttle box XPC nodes with 2 GHz Athlon processors connected by dual Gb Ethernet switches, is relatively easily constructed...

Multiprocessing is already prevalent in servers where multiple clients present an obvious source of thread-level parallelism. However, the case for multiprocessing is less clear f...
A large and increasing gap exists between processor and memory speeds in scalable cache-coherent multiprocessors. To cope with this situation, programmers and compiler writers mus...
For regular, sparse, linear systems, like those derived from regular grids, using High Performance Fortran (HPF) for iterative solvers is straightforward. However, for irregular ma...
The performance attained by parallel programs executed on multiprocessor systems is largely in uenced both by the characteristics of the code and by those of the system architectu...
