Conducting long-timescale simulations of small molecules using Molecular Dynamics (MD)
is crucial in drug design. However, traditional methods to accelerate the process, including …

Mobile agents are no longer a theoretical issue since different architectures for their
realization have been proposed. With the increasing market of electronic commerce it …

Emerging peer-to-peer applications require efficient group communication. However, current
techniques for group communication are not optimal for peer-to-peer networks, which do not …

This paper introduces the Spidergon-Donut (SD) on-chip interconnection network for
interconnecting 1,000 cores in future MPSoCs and CMPs. Unlike the Spidergon network, the …

Network-centric warfare must leverage off a common network to support different purposes.
While group communications based on a single virtual ring overlay may satisfy the most …

Ring-based network overlays have attractive characteristics for group communications such
as inherent reliability and single fault-tolerance. However, ring networks also generally have …

Emerging peer-to-peer concepts provide new possibilities but also challenges for distributed
applications. Despite their significant potential, current peer-to-peer networks lack efficient …

On-chip interconnection networks (OCINs) in many-core embedded systems consume large
portions of the chip's area, cost, delay and power. In addition to competing in area, cost, and …

This thesis investigates the properties of a hierarchical ring architecture, which is composed
of several unidirectional rings arranged to form a hierarchy. The proposed hierarchical ring …

Molecular Dynamics (MD) is a computer simulation technique that executes iteratively over
discrete, infinitesimal time intervals. It has been a widely utilized application in the fields of …
