Compile-time scheduling is one approach to extract parallelism which has proved effective when the execution behavior is predictable. Unfortunately, the performance of most priori...
Modern virtual machines, such as Java and Inferno, are emerging as network computing s. While these virtual machines provide higher-level abstractions and more sophisticated servi...
We describe the Paraflow system for connecting heterogeneous computing services together into a flexible and efficient data-mining metacomputer. There are three levels of parallel...
