Home-based Lazy Release Consistency (HLRC) shows poor performance on lock based applications because of two reasons: (1) a whole page is fetched on a page fault while actual modif...
Widely deployed multimedia services are expected to accommodate clients in a highly heterogeneous environment. Clients of a multimedia service may vary greatly in processing and c...
We compare the performance of systems consisting of one large cluster containing q processors with systems where processors are grouped into k clusters containing u processors eac...
Metacomputing infrastructures couple multiple clusters (or MPPs) via wide-area networks. A major problem in programming parallel applications for such platforms is their hierarchi...
Isosurface generation algorithms usually need a vertex-identification process since most of polygon-vertices of an isosurface are shared by several polygons. In our observation the...
