A Scalable Distributed Heterogeneous Associative Logic Programming System
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes a distributed implementation of a scalable heterogeneous associative logic programming model, and describes an abstract instruction set for the distributed version of the model. Associative computation exploits data parallel computation. The implementation uses PVM for architecture independence, and uses object oriented programming for modularity and portability. Performance results on a cluster of IBM RS 6000 are presented.

A Scalable Distributed Associative Multimedia Knowledge Base System for the Internet
This paper describes a system to retrieve multimedia knowledge on a cluster of heterogeneous architectures distributed over the internet. In this system, knowledge is represented using facts and rules in an associative logic-programming model. Associative computing facilitates search by content and exploits data parallel computation. It also provides a flat data model that can be easily mapped ...
متن کاملA General Framework for Heterogeneous Associative Logic Programming
Associative computation is characterized by search by content and data parallel computation. Search by content paradigm is natural to scalable high performance heterogeneous computing since use of tagged data makes data independent of implicit addressing mechanisms. In this paper, we present an algebra for associative logic programming, an associative resolution scheme, and a generic framework ...
