We have designed a maximum likelihood fitter using the actor model to distribute the computation over a heterogeneous network. The prototype implementation uses the SALSA program...

We show how to compute an LU factorization of a matrix when the factors of a leading principle submatrix are already known. The approach incorporates pivoting akin to partial pivo...
Commodity clusters offer the ability to deliver higher performance computer graphics at lower prices than traditional graphics supercomputers. Immersive virtual reality systems de...
Multipartitioning is a skewed-cyclic block distribution that yields better parallel efficiency and scalability for line-sweep computations than traditional block partitionings. Th...
Interactive computer games are widely seen as a killer application domain for Artificial Intelligence (AI) [8]. Quite apart from the significant size of the games market in terms...
