Seventeen papers from an April 1999 workshop fall under the following headings: comparisons of mapping heuristics, design tools, modeling and analysis, task assignment and scheduling, and invited case studies. Example paper topics are a comparison study of static mapping heuristics for a class of meta-tasks, an on-line performance visualization technology, the simulation of task graph systems, the robustness of metaprogram schedules, metacomputing with MILAN, and an overview of the management system for heterogeneous networks (MSHN).

Proceedings of the June 1996 conference which provided a forum for scientists, engineers, and computer users to exchange and compare their experiences, new ideas, and research results. Contains 169 contributions representing 24 countries over five continents discussing various aspects of distributed
Contains 113 papers presented at the April 1999 meetings. Arrangement is in 21 sections covering such topics as: algorithmic paradigms and primitives; latency tolerance and performance modeling; communication, run-time systems; scalable computing; communication and protocols for clusters; communication libraries; routing and broadcasting; miscellaneous architecture; advanced software for applications support; scientific engineering systems; signal processing; data mining and databases; and biological and discrete systems. Also included are abstracts of the panel discussions and the two keynote addresses from each of the symposiums. No subject index. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
The 57 papers in this volume were presented at the January 2002 workshop on distributed and parallel computing. The papers report advances in performance analysis, web computing, failure handling, Java and Jini, tools for grids, unorthodox computing architectures, systems and applications, message p
Proceedings of a January 2000 workshop, covering distributed and I/O systems, applications, web based computing, performance analysis, computer architecture, models and languages, scheduling and mapping, metacomputing, languages and compilers, distributed shared memory systems, and tools and environments. Specific topics include security mechanisms for the MAP agent system, predictability of bulk synchronous programs using MPI, and tailoring a self-distributed architecture to a cluster computer environment. Other subjects are parallel computing with a data driven model, groups in bulk synchronous parallel computing, databases and the web, the parallel cellular programming model, and reusable message passing components. The volume lacks a subject index. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR.
Annotation Includes one of the two keynote addresses, on matching architecture and software technology for high-performance computing systems; perhaps the other was not passed by the review committee. The other 29 full papers and 18 short presentations cover models and architectures for parallel processing, architectures and applications, computer- supported cooperative work, load balancing, design environments for parallel and distributed processing, models and tools, applications, SIMD as computational engines, performance modeling and scheduling, and heterogeneous systems. Among specific topics are the collective computing model, optimal versus robust design to optimize network throughput, a proxy-based approach to supporting cooperative World Wide Web browsing, the performance of nearest-neighbor load balancing algorithms in parallel systems, and a framework backbone for software fault tolerance in embedded parallel applications.
