The problem of simulating micro-scale urban traffic in large environments provides a great
opportunity for the utilization of HPC systems. Parallel implementation of this kind of …

Programming language implementers rely heavily on benchmarking for measuring and
understanding performance of algorithms, architectural designs, and trade-offs between …

Scala supports actors and message passing with the Akka library. Though Scala is statically
typed, messages in Akka are dynamically typed (that is, of type Any). The Akka designers …

As the number of cores grows in commodity architectures so does the likelihood of failures.
A distributed actor model potentially facilitates the development of reliable and scalable …

The scalable implementation of a microscopic simulation, presented in our previous work,
opens new areas of applications for traffic simulation, namely short term traffic forecasting. It …

Attribute-based communication provides a novel mechanism to dynamically select groups of
communicating entities by relying on predicates over their exposed attributes. In this paper …

The many core revolution makes scalability a key property. The RELEASE project aims to
improve the scalability of Erlang on emergent commodity architectures with 100,000 cores …

With the advent of many-core architectures, scalability is a key property for programming
languages. Actor-based frameworks like Erlang are fundamentally scalable, but in practice …

Erlang applications are present in several mission-critical systems. These systems demand
substantial computing resources that are usually provided by multiprocessor and multi-core …

The actor model is present in several mission-critical systems, such as those supporting
WhatsApp and Twitter. These systems serve thousands of clients simultaneously, therefore …
