Multiprocessing in Meteorological Models

Rediflow Multiprocessing

We discuss the concepts underlying Rediflow, a multiprocess ing system be ing designed to support concurrent programm ing through a hybrid model of reduction , dataflow, and von Neumann processes. The techniques of automatic load-balan cing in Rediflow are described in som e detail.

Meteorological Models for Estimating Phenology of Corn

Knowledge of when critical crop stages occur and how the environment affects them should provide useful information for crop management decisions and crop production models. This research evaluated two sources of data for predicting dates of silking and physiological maturityof corn (Zea mays L.). Initial evaluations were conducted using data of an adapted corn hybrid grown on a Typic Agriaquol...

Task Scheduling in Multiprocessing Systems

VM/370 Asymmetric Multiprocessing

This paper discusses the design and implementation of the attached processor (AP) support first available in Release 4 of vM/ 370. The term attached processor in this context refers to the specific implementation on Systed370 Models 158 and 168 and on the 3031 processor of an asymmetric processor configuration. This implementation comprises one central processing unit (CPU) with full execution,...

Automating the Multiprocessing Environment

1989 Summary An approach to automate the programming and operation of tree-structured networks of multiprocessor systems is discussed. A conceptual, knowledge-based operating environment is presented, and requirements for two major technology elements are identified as follows: (I) An intelligent information translator is proposed for implementing information transfer between dissimilar hardwar...
