A hybrid distributed mutual exclusion algorithm
Chang Y. Microprocessing and Microprogramming 41(10): 715-731, 1996. Type: Article
The existing mutual exclusion algorithms in distributed systems can be categorized as token-based or non-token-based. Some of these algorithms focus on reducing message traffic, others on minimizing time delay. However, there is no sin...

Exploiting partial replication in unbalanced parallel loop scheduling on multicomputers
Orlando S., Perego R. Microprocessing and Microprogramming 41(8-9): 645-658, 1996. Type: Article
An efficient algorithm for scheduling parallel loops, whose iterations operate on large array data structures and are characterized by highly varying execution times (unbalanced or nonuniform parallel loops), is described and analyzed....

Deriving structured parallel implementations for numerical methods
Rauber T., Rünger G. Microprocessing and Microprogramming 41(8-9): 589-608, 1996. Type: Article
The authors present a methodology for deriving structured parallel implementations of numerical methods. Derivation is subdivided into identifying the potential coarse-grain parallelism in the numerical method, fixing implementation de...

Mixing floating- and fixed-point formats for neural network learning on neuroprocessors
Anguita D., Gomes B. Microprocessing and Microprogramming 41(10): 757-769, 1996. Type: Article
For neural network learning on a dedicated processor, the authors present a mixed floating/fixed-point implementation of matrix backpropagation (MBP) that isolates the most computationally expensive steps of the algorithm and implement...

Modeling of optimal load balancing strategy using queueing theory
Spies F. Microprocessing and Microprogramming 41(8-9): 555-570, 1996. Type: Article
Though the writing in this paper is hard to understand--almost incomprehensible--my best guess is that the model the author uses to represent an “optimal load balancing strategy using queueing theoryR...

A microprocessor-based logical machine system
Tsai S., Tseng L., Beer M. Microprocessing and Microprogramming 19(5): 375-384, 1987. Type: Article
The authors present an architecture, called the Logical Machine, that permits multiple operating system environments to be executed on a single computer. The principal difference between a logical machine and a virtual machine is the l...

A simple bus analyzer: parallel debugging tool and real time performance measure instrument and its application
Hou K., Fontenier G., Senadji M. Microprocessing and Microprogramming 19(5): 401-405, 1987. Type: Article
The authors describe a 68000-based “bus analyzer” they developed for the UTC tightly coupled (common memory) multiprocessor. This analyzer is used for debugging and for performance measurements. It connects to the c...
