GeoNotes: A Location-based Information System for Public Spaces
The basic idea behind location-based information systems is to connect information pieces to positions in outdoor or indoor space. Through position technologies such as Global Positioning System (GPS), GSM positioning, Wireless LAN positioning o
Extending and Implementing the Self-adaptive Virtual Processor for Distributed Memory Architectures
Many-core architectures of the future are likely to have distributed memory
organizations and need fine grained concurrency management to be used
effectively. The Self-adaptive Virtual Processor (SVP) is an abstract
concurrent programming model which can provide this, but the model and its
current implementations assume a single address space shared memory. We
investigate and extend SVP to handle distributed environments, and discuss a
prototype SVP implementation which transparently supports execution on
heterogeneous distributed memory clusters over TCP/IP connections, while
retaining the original SVP programming model
