Abstract: This paper describes the design of a common message passing layer for implementing both MPI and PVM over the SCI interconnect in a workstation or PC cluster. The design is focused at obtaining low latency. The message layer encapsulates all necessary knowledge of the underlying interconnect and operating system. Yet, we claim that it can be used to implement such different message passing libraries as MPI and PVM without sacrificing efficiency. Initial results obtained from using the message layer in SCI clusters are presented.

Abstract: This short paper presents a system offering parallel persistent and polymorphic sets of objects, on the level of an existing general purpose object-oriented programming language, like Modula-3 and JAVA. The user of such a system gets distribution and persistence in the same natural way, as users of traditional systems get volatile arrays of numbers of objects. In addition, advantages are taken from sophisticated optimization techniques.

Abstract: Even the more or less "canonical'', lower-level architecture of information systems needs to be revisited from time to time. Notions like persistence and transactions belong traditionally to the area of database management systems. There are, however, many applications, such as CAD, VLSI design or simulation, which need persistence and could take advantage of transactions, but require especially fast implementations not provided by DBMS. In this paper we are describing a low-level transaction concept used to implement our parallel main memory object store (PPOST), to provide main memory access times combined with the safety and convenience of transactions.

Abstract: The choice of the first-course programming language for a university-level computer science curriculum has pedagogical ramifications in terms of comprehensibility and mastery of fundamental concepts. This paper compares the merits of Java and Modula-3 as a first-course language.
