Suppose we have a parallel or distributed system whose nodes have limited capacities, such as processing speed, bandwidth, memory, or disk space. How does the performance of the s...
This paper describes issues encountered in the design and implementation of a parallel object-oriented database system. In particular, we find that the design of a client/server ...
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...
Developing and debugging parallel programs particularly for distributed memory architectures is still a difficult task. The most popular approach to developing parallel programs f...
