Researchers have recently proposed coupling small- to mediumscale multiprocessors to build large-scale shared memory machines, known as multigrain shared memory systems. Multigrai...
Emerging application domains such as interactive vision, animation, and multimedia collaboration display dynamic scalable parallelism, and high computational requirements, making ...
The MiPPS library supports a hybrid model of parallel programming. The library is targeted at commodity multiprocessors, with support for clusters. The implementation of the concu...
We construct, analyze and solve models of systems where a number of servers offer services to an incoming stream of demands. Each server goes through alternating periods of being ...
