Clusters of SMPs are becoming increasingly common. However, the shared memory design of SMPs and the consequential contention between system processors for access to main memory c...
Pipelining has been used in the design of many PRAM algorithms to reduce their asymptotic running time. Paul, Vishkin, and Wagener (PVW) used the approach in a parallel implementat...
Accurate performance predictions are difficult to achieve for parallel applications executing on production distributed systems. Conventional point-valued performance parameters a...
Security is a critical issue in dynamic and open distributed environments such as network-based services or wireless networks. To ensure that a certain level of security is maintai...
