DECENTRALIZED CONTROL OF DISTRIBUTED PROCESSING SYSTEMS
… for implementing decentralized scheduling for distributed systems. The environment in which the controlling entities make decisions is stochastic and can be described as uncertain since each entity may have a different view of the system state. As a consequence, these entities may make …

Distributed processing of large triangle meshes
… made of millions, or even billions, of elements. Processing and analysing such large datasets is often a non trivial task, due to specific software and hardware requirements. Our system allows to process large triangle meshes by exploiting nothing more than a standard Web browser. A graphical …

Principles of Instruction-Level Distributed Processing
… machine performance, the penalties imposed by distributed execution notwithstanding. Key to exploiting that potential is knowledge of the critical path through a program. This can be used to achieve a judicious allocation of execution resources to instructions, with performance-critical …

Distributed processing, reconfigurable processes and active network
… on genetic algorithm (GA). The solution uses a distributed GA inspired by bacterium on the active nodes within an active network, to provide adaptive management for the network, especially the service provision problems associated with future network. The thesis also reviews the concepts, …

On the power of centralization in distributed processing
… a performance trade-off between centralized and distributed processing. In our model, a fraction p of an available resource is deployed in a centralized manner (e.g., to serve a most-loaded station) while the remaining fraction 1 -p is allocated to local servers that can only serve requests …

Building interactive distributed processing applications at a global scale
… scale. In this cases, distributing storage and processing is key to handling the large scale. Distribution necessitates handling two main aspects: a) the placement of data/processing and b) the data motion across the distributed locations. However, handling the distribution while meeting latency …

The organisational effects of installing a distributed processing system
… to business in 1952, computerised data processing has undergone a number of substantial changes, both in the hardware and the techniques that are used. The introduction of miniaturisation, and the resultant lowering of the costs of circuitry, has led to the widespread use of mini- and …

Supporting Distributed Fault Tolerance In A Real-Time Micro-Kernel
… collection of standardized parts makes distributed processing a realistic possibility. Unfortunately, current strategies to supporting software on such systems have a number of critical drawbacks. Many existing approaches rely on centralized control strategies, fail to support fault …

A Dynamically Reconfigurable Parallel Processing Framework with Application to High-Performance Video Processing
Digital video processing demands have and will continue to grow at unprecedented rates. Growth comes from ever increasing volume of data, demand for higher resolution, higher frame rates, and the need for high capacity communications. Moreover, economic realities force continued reductions in size, …
