Abstract. In this paper, a practical coarse-grained distributed parallel programming interface for grid computing (PI4GC) is introduced. des a group of generic and abstract functio...
This paper discusses the impact of the hierarchical master-worker paradigm on performance of an application program, which solves an optimization problem by a parallel branch and ...
This paper describes a novel approach to performance analysis for parallel and distributed systems that is based on soft computing. We introduce the concept of performance score re...
