Graph Chatbot

Chattez avec Graph Search

Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.

AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.

Gaussian Process Belief Propagation

Matthias Seeger

The framework of graphical models is a cornerstone of applied Statistics, allowing for an intuitive graphical specification of the main features of a model, and providing a basis for general Bayesian inference computations though belief propagation (BP). I ...

Actors that Unify Threads and Events

Martin Odersky, Philipp Haller

There is an impedance mismatch between message-passing concurrency and virtual machines, such as the JVM. VMs usually map their threads to heavyweight OS processes. Without a lightweight process abstraction, users are often forced to write parts of concurr ...

Language Support for Fast and Reliable Message Based Communication in Singularity OS

James Richard Larus

Message-based communication offers potential benefits of providing stronger specification and cleaner separation between components. Compared with shared-memory interactions, message passing has the potential disadvantages of being more expensive (no direc ...

Event-Based Programming without Inversion of Control

Martin Odersky, Philipp Haller

The actor computation model is especially suited for concurrent and distributed computations. Actors are basically concurrent processes which communicate through asynchronous message passing. When combined with pattern matching for messages, actor-based pr ...

SAMOA: A Framework for a Synchronisation-Augmented Microprotocol Approach

André Schiper, Olivier Rütti

We address programming abstractions for building protocols from smaller, reusable microprotocols. The existing protocol frameworks, such as Appia and Cactus, either restrict the amount of concurrency between microprotocols, or depend on the programmer, who ...

Robust Emulations of Shared Memory in a Crash-Recovery Model

Rachid Guerraoui, Ron Levy

A shared memory abstraction can be robustly emulated over an asynchronous message passing system where any process can fail by crashing and possibly recover (crash-recovery model), by having (a) the processes exchange messages to synchronize their read and ...

An Efficient Universal Construction for Message-Passing Systems

Rachid Guerraoui, Bastian Pochon, Partha Dutta

A universal construction is an algorithm that transforms any object with a sequential specification into a wait-free and linearizable implementation of that object. This paper presents a novel universal construction algorithm for a message-passing system w ...

Quantifying the Performance Differences Between PVM and TreadMarks

Willy Zwaenepoel, Sandhya Dwarkadas

We compare two systems for parallel programming on networks of workstations: Parallel Virtual Machine (PVM) a message passing system, and TreadMarks, a software distributed shared memory (DSM) system. We present results for eight applications that were imp ...

The Tempest Approach to Distributed Shared Memory

James Richard Larus, David Wood

This paper summarizes how distributed shared memory (DSM) can be both efficiently and portably supported by the Tempest interface. Tempest is a collection of mechanisms for communication and synchronization in parallel programs. These mechanisms provide co ...

Tempest: A Substrate for Portable Parallel Programs

James Richard Larus, David Wood

The paper describes Tempest, a collection of mechanisms for communication and synchronization in parallel programs. With these mechanisms, authors of compilers, libraries, and application programs can exploit-across a wide range of hardware platforms-the b ...
