Scalable Application Layer Multicast

by Suman Banerjee, Bobby Bhattacharjee, Christopher Kommareddy , 2002
"... We describe a new scalable application-layer multicast protocol, specifically designed for low-bandwidth, data streaming applications with large receiver sets. Our scheme is based upon a hierarchical clustering of the application-layer multicast peers and can support a number of different data deliv ..."

Chord: A Scalable Peer-to-Peer Lookup Service for Internet Applications

by Ion Stoica, Robert Morris, David Karger, M. Frans Kaashoek, Hari Balakrishnan - SIGCOMM'01 , 2001
"... A fundamental problem that confronts peer-to-peer applications is to efficiently locate the node that stores a particular data item. This paper presents Chord, a distributed lookup protocol that addresses this problem. Chord provides support for just one operation: given a key, it maps the key onto ..."

The Anatomy of the Grid - Enabling Scalable Virtual Organizations

by Ian Foster, Carl Kesselman, Steven Tuecke - International Journal of Supercomputer Applications , 2001
"... "Grid" computing has emerged as an important new field, distinguished from conventional distributed computing by its focus on large-scale resource sharing, innovative applications, and, in some cases, high-performance orientation. In this article, we define this new field. First, we review ..."

Algorithms for Scalable Synchronization on Shared-Memory Multiprocessors

by John M. Mellor-crummey, Michael L. Scott - ACM Transactions on Computer Systems , 1991
"... Busy-wait techniques are heavily used for mutual exclusion and barrier synchronization in shared-memory parallel programs. Unfortunately, typical implementations of busy-waiting tend to produce large amounts of memory and interconnect contention, introducing performance bottlenecks that become marke ..."
Abstract - Cited by 567 (32 self) - Add to MetaCart
new scalable algorithm for spin locks that generates O(1) remote references per lock acquisition, independent of the number of processors attempting to acquire the lock. Our algorithm provides reasonable latency in the absence of contention, requires only a constant amount of space per lock

Fast Parallel Algorithms for Short-Range Molecular Dynamics

by Steve Plimpton - JOURNAL OF COMPUTATIONAL PHYSICS , 1995
"... Three parallel algorithms for classical molecular dynamics are presented. The first assigns each processor a fixed subset of atoms; the second assigns each a fixed subset of inter-atomic forces to compute; the third assigns each a fixed spatial region. The algorithms are suitable for molecular dyn ..."
