As the level of parallelism in manycore processors keeps increasing, providing efficient mechanisms for thread synchronization in concurrent programs is becoming a major concern. On cache-coherent shared-memory processors, synchronization efficiency is ult ...
The advent of manycore architectures raises new scalability challenges for concurrent applications. Implementing scalable data structures is one of them. Several manycore architectures provide hardware message passing as a means to efficiently exchange dat ...
The distinct lattice spring model (DLSM) is a newly developed numerical tool for modeling rock dynamics problems, i.e. dynamic failure and wave propagation. In this paper, parallelization of DLSM is presented. With the development of parallel computing tec ...
The high failure rate expected for future supercomputers requires the design of new fault tolerant solutions. Most checkpointing protocols are designed to work with any message-passing application but suffer from scalability issues at extreme scale. We tak ...
We investigate the problem of distributed sensors' failure detection in networks with a small number of defective sensors, whose measurements differ significantly from neighbouring sensor measurements. We build on the sparse nature of the binary sensor fai ...
