Multicore is now the dominant processor trend, and the number of cores is rapidly increasing. The paradigm shift to multicore forces the redesign of the software stack, which incl...
A practical problem faced by users of metacomputers and computational grids is: If my computation can move from one system to another, how can I ensure that my data will still be ...
This paper reports our experiences on the Scalable Network Of Workstation (SNOW) project, which implements a novel methodology to support user-level process migration for traditio...
Simultaneous Multithreading (SMT) processors achieve high processor throughput at the expense of single-thread performance. This paper investigates resource allocation policies fo...
Transactional memory (TM) has shown potential to simplify the task of writing concurrent programs. Inspired by classical work on databases, formal definitions of the semantics of...
