We present Vector LLVA, a virtual instruction set architecture (VISA) that exposes extensive static information about vector parallelism while avoiding the use of hardware-speciď¬...
In 2002, Japan announced the Earth Simulator—a supercomputer based on low-volume vector processors and a custom network—and reported that computational scientists had used it ...
Abstract Competition and cooperation can boost the performance of a combinatorial search process. Both can be implemented with a portfolio of algorithms which run in parallel, give...
A major challenge facing grid applications is the appropriate handling of failures. In this paper we address the problem of making parallel Java applications based on Remote Method...
Large message latencies often lead to poor performance of parallel applications. In this paper, we investigate a latency-tolerating technique that immediately releases all blocking...
