Adam Welc, Richard L. Hudson, Tatiana Shpeisman, Ali-Reza Adl-Tabatabai · 2010
In this paper we introduce generic workers, a programming model for JavaScript unifying parallel and distributed computing paradigms, that allows the same application to run well on a variety of clients while utilizing the available resources in the best possible way. We describe the design and implementation of an infrastructure supporting our programming model and evaluate performance of selected applications running on devices with differing computational capabilities.
