Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book takes an innovative approach to discrete event simulation of computer networks. The author outlines a new table-driven approach, embodied in the provided distributed simulator, which attempts to exploit the commonalities present in the infrastructure of transaction flows inside computer networks. The user is relieved of the drudgery of writing and debugging simulation programs by providing a high-level view of the computer network, rooted in the concept of transactions occurring inside the network. Unlike existing queueing networks, this high level view also considers the processes, schedulers, and operating systems, in addition to the resources. This book finds applications in the reduction of time and effort involved in developing discrete event simulation models of online computer networks. It provides a simple yet truthful representation of interprocessor communication, focusing solely on timing considerations and ignoring transmission errors. The author believes that the suggested protocol can adequately represent the events in a real computer network when only timing considerations are of importance. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the field of computer network simulation, providing a deeper understanding of the complexities involved in simulating the behavior of computer networks. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book introduces a new method to verify parallel programs for any fixed number of processors. The method uses a special compact representation to describe all execution states of programs, which aids in verifying the properties that cannot be easily expressed as 'predicate(state)'. The method is demonstrated by verifying correctness properties of several parallel programming examples, especially those that deal with synchronization. It shows that the method can detect subtle race conditions and other timing-based bugs which traditional verification methods (such as those based on finite state machines) cannot detect. Altogether, this book broadens the range of parallel programs that can be verified. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This text is an excerpt from a scientific book focusing on describing a computer algorithm that verifies parallel coordination programs. The algorithm's goal is to check if each of these programs reaches a compact state, a status where the desired result can be achieved within a finite time frame. The book introduces the concept of controlled vector addition systems (CVAS) as a mathematical model for parallel program analysis and provides an algorithm called DEVELOP to construct reachability set descriptions for a class of CVAS. The algorithm is proven to terminate if the program being tested is normal, and termination is equivalent to compactness in this context. Additionally, the book explores how DEVELOP can be applied to parametric CVAS, a concept that introduces a variable parameter to the algorithm. The author demonstrates that DEVELOP will still terminate for a parametric CVAS if the reachability set is finite for each value of the parameter. These insights provide new tools and techniques for analyzing and verifying the behavior of parallel coordination programs. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the field of parallel coordination programming, elucidating the complex concepts involved in designing and verifying such programs. The author introduces a class of coordination programs and delves into their properties, examining notions such as serialization, livelock, and blocking. One crucial aspect of the book is the introduction of a reachability set description (RSD), a novel representation that facilitates the analysis of program behavior for any number of processing elements. The RSD enables the construction of compact invariants, providing a powerful tool for ensuring the correctness of parallel programs. Through a series of examples and case studies, the author demonstrates the application of these concepts. The insights presented in this book empower readers to develop and verify reliable and efficient parallel coordination programs, solidifying its significance as a valuable resource for researchers and practitioners in the field of parallel computing. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
