This paper describes the latest advances made to a software architecture designed to control multiple miniature robots. As the robots themselves have very limited computational capabilities, a distributed control system is needed to coordinate tasks among a large number of robots. Two of the major c

The solution of partial differential equations on a parallel computer is usually done by a data parallel approach. The grid is partitioned and mapped onto the processors. However, partitioning of unstructured meshes and adaptively refined meshes in general is an N P -hard problem and heuristics are
Solving initial value problems (IVPs) for ordinary differential equations (ODEs) has long been believed to be an inherently sequential procedure. But IVP solvers using the extrapolation method provide high quality solutions and offer a great potential for parallelism. In this paper, we present algor
Consider the following situation: \(n\) processors of a PRAM are given \(n\) independent tasks. Each task can be executed in constant time by a single processor. The distribution of tasks among the processors is unknown; each processor has information only about its set of tasks. The batch execution
