We analyze the scheduling aspects of database queries submitted to an abstract model of a very large distributed system. The essential elements of this model are: (a) a finite number of identical processing nodes with...

Mobile objects are programs passed between distributed information servers for execution on remote sites within a limited environment. We describe the MHEG virtual machine specification which supports mobile code in a heterogeneous environment. MHEG VM is suitable for integration in many different distributed information systems, including the WWW. We briefly describe the possible integration of the MHEG VM with the HyOctane hypermedia system. We conclude this paper by discussing various issues associated with the design of robust mobile code systems. Copyright (C) 1996 Elsevier science Ltd

A multiploid genotype comprises a number of chromosomes, and a 'dominance' mechanism underlying its interpretation. The simplest dominance mechanism uses a 'mask' chromosome, genes in which determine w...

Some evolutionary algorithm (EA)/timetabling researchers find benefit from combining an EA with graph-colouring based greedy algorithms, while others opt for a simpler but faster method. We consider a combination of t...

In this paper we present some novel algorithms for scheduling hierarchical signal flow graphs in the domain of high-level synthesis. There are several key contributions of this paper. First, we develop a novel extension of the force directed scheduling problem which naturally handles loops and conditionals by coming up with a scheme of scheduling hierarchical signal flow graphs. Second, we develop three new parallel algorithms for the scheduling problem. Third, our parallel algorithms are portable across a wide range of parallel platforms. We report results on a set of high-level synthesis benchmarks on 8-processor SGI Challenge and a network of 4 SUN SPARCstation5 work stations. Finally, while some parallel algorithms for VLSI CAD reported by earlier researchers have reported a loss of qualities of results, our parallel algorithms produce exactly the same results as the sequential algorithms on which they are based.
