  • Parallel code generation via scheduling

    Creator:
    Meyer-Arendt, Karen
    Abstract:
    A translator has been designed and implemented which generates parallel code for a long instruction word parallel computer with local memories. Its main methods are to translate the sequential source code into single assignment, two-operand form, and to then assign the operations to processors so as to minimize the number...

  • Strengths and weaknesses of Dataparallel C

    Creator:
    S, Seetharamakrishnan
    Abstract:
    Dataparallel C is a SIMD style data-parallel programming language for MIMD com­puters. Dataparallel Chas been implemented on both shared memory (Sequent) and distributed memory (Intel and nCUBE) computers. Here we analyze the strengths and weaknesses of Dataparallel C by comparing the performance of compiled Data­parallel C programs with the performance...

  • Implementation of remote job control of the draft machine through Unix mail

    Creator:
    Jin, Sue-May
    Abstract:
    A remote job control system for the DRAFT machine is developed. It provides the user a convenient remote computing environment with facilities for job submission, a means of servicing the job queue on a first-come-first-serve basis, and usage reporting. It provides a logging facility to keep track of the user's...

  • EXE, an expert system shell for agricutural applications

    Creator:
    Currans, Kevin
    Abstract:
    This paper discusses the design, construction, and use of a prototype expert system shell, EXE. EXE is non-conventional in that it does not provide a traditional forward or backward chaining inference mechanism. Instead, it allows the domain expert to control the logic flow of the system in a dynamic fashion....

  • Similarity-based real-time concurrency control protocols

    Creator:
    Lai, Chih
    Abstract:
    Serializability is unnecessarily strict for real-time systems because most transactions in such systems occur periodically and changes among data values over a few consecutive periods are often insignificant. Hence, data values produced within a short interval can be treated as if they are "similar" and interchangeable. This notion of similarity...

  • Algorithms for string matching with applications in molecular biology

    Creator:
    Holloway, James Lee
    Abstract:
    As the volume of genetic sequence data increases due to improved sequencing techniques and increased interest, the computational tools available to analyze the data are becoming inadequate. This thesis seeks to improve a few of the computational methods available to access and analyze data in the genetic sequence databases. The...

  • G, a language based on demand-driven stream evaluations

    Creator:
    Placer, John R.
    Abstract:
    A programming paradigm can be defined as a model or an approach employed in solving a problem. The results of the research described in this document demonstrate that it is possible to unite several different programming paradigms into a single linguistic framework. The imperative, procedural, applicative, lambda-free, relational, logic and...

  • OSU : a high speed software development environment

    Creator:
    Yang, Sherry and Lewis, Ted G.
    Abstract:
    Several problems with user interface design and implementation have been identified: (1) user interfaces are difficult and time­-consuming to design and implement; (2) most user interface management systems (UIMS) are themselves difficult to use by a programmer; (3) UIMS's have not been integrated with other tools that support structured design,...

  • An editor for message passing programs

    Creator:
    Pai, Akash L.
    Abstract:
    Preparing code for parallelization is one of the most time consuming programming tasks; approximately 24% of the program development activity is spend in this phase. In message passing systems, this is usually achieved by the addition of run-time message-passing library calls. The primitives provided by different message-passing libraries are similar,...

  • Linda-Smalltalk : parallel implementation of Little Smalltalk using tuple space communication of Linda

    Creator:
    Chung, Jean H.
    Abstract:
    A new technique of implementing the object-oriented language Little Smalltalk is developed using tuple space communication of Linda. In this implementation, the language's abstract constructs such as object, class, and method are naturally mapped into tuple space. Since Linda's tuple space is designed to facilitate parallel processing, this implementation technique...
