Dynamite-blasting obstacles to parallel cluster computing
Workstations make up a very large fraction of the total available computing capacity in many organisations. In order to use this capacity optimally, dynamic allocation of computing resources is needed. The Esp...

Distributed Simulation with Cellular Automata: Architecture and Applications
Many fundamental problems from natural sciences deal with complex systems. We define a complex system as a population of unique elements with well defined microscopic attributes and interactions, showing emerg...

Parallel latice-Boltzmann simulation of fluid flow in centrifugal elutriation chambers
We present parallel lattice-Boltzmann simulations of fluid flow in a centrifugal elutriation chamber, a cell separation device for human blood cells. The critical factor in this separation technique is the hyd...

Preserving locality for optimal parallelism in task allocation
Genetic Algorithms have been applied to several combinatorial optimisation problems, including the well known task allocation problem, originating from parallel computing. We introduce random task graphs as a ...

Breaking the curse of dynamics by task migration: Pilot experiments in the polder metacomputer
With the advent of high speed networks, distributed cluster computing and metacomputing have assumed an enormous interest. However, software methods and techniques to make the full potential of these distribut...

A parallel cellular genetic algorithm used in finite element simulation
In this paper we will formulate a framework for a parallel population based search process: an Abstract Cellular Genetic Algorithm (ACGA). Using the ACGA as a template, various parallel search algorithms can b...

Constrained migration of an atmospheric circulation model
In the migration of large production codes from sequential to parallel implementations a total rewriting of the original code is often prohibited. The reason for this is that very complicated codes took years ...

A comparison of the Iserver-Occam, parix, express, and PVM programming environments on a Parsytec GCel
We compare the Iserver-Occam, Parix, PVM, and Express parallel programming environments on a Parsytec GCel with 512 T805 transputers. The comparison will be made by a detailed analysis of the performance of on...
