It is shown that the provision of several advanced services in RHODOS allow the implementation of PVM to be greatly simplified, and significant speed-ups to applications can be achieved. These services allow the dynamic establishment of a virtual machine by removing heavily loaded and adding idle/lightly loaded workstations, placing processes on workstations to optimise static allocation, instantiating processes using group process creation and balancing load dynamically using process migration. The performance study shows that the processing time of PVM applications executed on the RHODOS virtual machine is much shorter than those achieved on the Unix virtual machine.","PeriodicalId":157641,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Fourth International Symposium on Parallel Architectures, Algorithms, and Networks (I-SPAN'99)","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1999-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133897528","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The major problem for this case is the possibility of drastically low yield and/or reliability of the system if there is no strategy for coping with such situations. In this paper, we propose a reconfigurable processor array based on the 1 1/2 -track switch (TS) model, such that spare processing elements (PEs) are not necessarily put around the array, but are more flexibly put in the array by changing the connections of spare PEs to non-spare PEs while retaining the connections among the non-spare PEs in the same manner as those in the 1 1/2 -TS model. The proposed model has a desirable property such that the physical distances between logically adjacent PEs in the reconfigured array are within a constant, i.e. independent of the size of the array. We show that the hardware overhead of the proposed model is a little greater than that of the 1 1/2 -TS model, while the yield of the proposed model is much better than that of the 1 1/2 -TS model.","PeriodicalId":157641,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Fourth International Symposium on Parallel Architectures, Algorithms, and Networks (I-SPAN'99)","volume":"48 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1999-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128159626","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However developing a parallel discrete-event simulation from scratch requires an in-depth knowledge of the mapping process from the physical model to the simulation model, and a substantial effort in optimising performance. This paper presents an overview of the SPaDES (Structured Parallel Discrete-Event Simulation) parallel simulation framework. We focus on the performance analysis of SPaDES/C++, an implementation of SPaDES on a distributed-memory Fujitsu AP3000 parallel computer. SPaDES/C++ hides the underlying complex parallel simulation synchronization and parallel programming details from the simulationist. Our empirical results show that the SPaDES framework can deliver good speedup if the process granularity is properly optimised.","PeriodicalId":157641,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Fourth International Symposium on Parallel Architectures, Algorithms, and Networks (I-SPAN'99)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1999-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129033490","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We have implemented Java4P, an extension of the Java language, that offers a simpler concurrency model and overcomes Java's limitations. Threads are no longer associated with thread objects, allowing concurrency at any level of granularity. Thread creation is made implicit and synchronisation is achieved through method guards. Synchronisation specification is separated from the functional specification to provide a parallel programming model closer to sequential programming.","PeriodicalId":157641,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Fourth International Symposium on Parallel Architectures, Algorithms, and Networks (I-SPAN'99)","volume":"74 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1999-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129288831","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since computing the d-MST is NP-hard for every d in the range 2/spl les/d/spl les/(n-2) where n denotes the total number of nodes, several approximate algorithms have been proposed in the literature. We have previously proposed two approximate algorithms, TC-RNN and IR, for the d-MST problem (L.J. Mao et al., 1997). Our experimental results show that while the IR algorithm is faster, the TC-RNN algorithm consistently produces spanning trees with a smaller weight. We propose a new algorithm, TC-NNC, which is an improved version of TC-RNN. Our experiments using randomly generated, weighted graphs as input, demonstrate that the execution time of TC-NNC is smaller than that of TC-RNN, and is very close to that of IR. Further, the quality-of-solution of TC-NNC is better than that of IR and is very close to that of TC-RNN.","PeriodicalId":157641,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Fourth International Symposium on Parallel Architectures, Algorithms, and Networks (I-SPAN'99)","volume":"115 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1999-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131412779","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our model can capture many important features of user movements, such as geographically dependent movement, directional movement and non-exponential distribution of cell dwell times. We propose to use the transient method to predict the location of a mobile user. This method is efficient and, more importantly, able to address the temporal change in the current location of a mobile user. Therefore, the accuracy of the prediction of the location of a user can be enhanced. We also propose a new location update protocol which can attain a lower trading cost and also adapt to different mobility patterns. Transient performance analysis is also carried out and the results are compared with other protocols.","PeriodicalId":157641,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Fourth International Symposium on Parallel Architectures, Algorithms, and Networks (I-SPAN'99)","volume":"30 24","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1999-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131805029","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We describe a technique that allows a single ad hoc network to span across heterogeneous link layers. Using this technique, we can both integrate ad hoc networks into the hierarchical Internet and support the migration of mobile nodes from the Internet into and out of ad hoc networks via Mobile IP. Taken together, these solutions improve the scalability of flat ad hoc networks by introducing hierarchy, and they enable all nodes participating in the ad hoc network to be reachable from anywhere in the world. We have implemented each of the solutions in a real testbed of 8 nodes using the Dynamic Source Routing (DSR) protocol. Generalizing our solutions, we describe several abstract scenarios and present our ideas for solving them.","PeriodicalId":157641,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Fourth International Symposium on Parallel Architectures, Algorithms, and Networks (I-SPAN'99)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1999-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132020839","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
