On the design of abstract binding connectors for high performance computing component models
Francisco Heron de Carvalho, Rafael Dueire Lins, Ricardo Cordeiro Corrês, Gisele Azevedo Araújo, Jefferson de Carvalho Silva · 2007
Some requirements of high-performance computing (HPC), mainly regarding parallel synchronization, are not met by the service connectors of standard commercial component models. Thus, this paper analyzes the usual extensions to the notion of service connector and provides alternative solutions based on type system theory, achieving a higher-level of abstraction. A notion of "abstract connector", adopted by HPE (the # Programming Environment), is presented.
