The Parallel Programming Guide for Every Software Developer From grids and clusters to
next-generation game consoles, parallel computing is going mainstream. Innovations such …

Jade is a portable, implicitly parallel language designed for exploiting task-level
concurrency. Jade programmers start with a program written in a standard serial, imperative …

Distributed Memory Multicomputers (DMMs), such as the IBM SP-2, the Intel Paragon, and
the Thinking Machines CM-5, offer significant advantages over shared memory …

Today's commodity disk drives, the basic unit of storage for computer systems large and
small, are actually small computers, with a processor, memory, and 'network'connection …

Languages that support task and data parallelism are highly general and can exploit both
forms of parallelism in a single application. However, cleanly integrating the two forms of …

This paper addressesoptimal mapping of parallel programs composed of a chain of data
parallel tasks onto the processors of a parallel system. The input to this class of programs is …

Networked systems provide a cost-effective platform for parallel computing, but the
applications have to deal with the changing availability of computation and communication …

This paper presents some techniques for efficient thread forking and joining in parallel
execution environments, taking into consideration the physical structure of NUMA machines …

We describe and evaluate a novel approach for the automatic parallelization of programs
that use pointer-based dynamic data structures, written in Java. The approach exploits …

This paper addresses optimal mapping of parallel programs composed of a chain of data
parallel tasks onto the processors of a parallel system. The input to the programs is a stream …
