We introduce a new performance metric, called Load Balancing Factor (LBF), to assist programmers with evaluating different tuning alternatives. The LBF metric differs from traditi...
In this paper the problem of fault-tolerant message routing in two-dimensional meshes, with each inner node having 4 neighbors, is investigated. It is assumed that some nodes/links...
In this paper we present a security framework for executing foreign programs, called helpers, on a Pocket Companion: a wireless hand-held computer. A helper program as proposed is...
Sorting is an important component of many applications, and parallel sorting algorithms have been studied extensively in the last three decades. One of the earliest parallel sorti...
One of the promises of parallelized discrete-event simulation is that it might provide significant speedups over sequential simulation. In reality, high performance cannot be achi...
