We develop the rst steps of a theory of concurrency within the framework of evolving algebras of Gurevich, with the aim of investigating its suitability for the role of a general f...
In this paper, we investigate the practical performance of lock-free techniques that provide synchronization on shared-memory multiprocessors. Our goal is to provide a technique t...
Many routing problems in parallel processing, such as concentration and permutation problems, can be cast as sorting problems. In this paper, we consider the problem of sorting on ...
We describe a physically-based Monte Carlo technique for approximating bidirectional reflectance distribution functions (BRDFs) for a large class of geometries by directly simulat...

In this paper, we explore the execution of pipelined hash joins in a multiprocessor-based database system. To improve the query execution, an innovative approach on query executio...
