Massively Parallel Computing: Algorithms – Design Methods – Applications

Networks have become a central part of our modern life, e.g. as high performance computers, as communication and information systems, or as planning and management components in logistics and transport systems. The continuously growing complexity of such systems generates perennial new challenges for computer scientists as well as for engineers. In this contribution, I describe the goals and the structure of the SFB 376 Massively Parallel Computing: Algorithms – Design Methods – Applications. As an example of our work, I describe an algorithms-oriented research topic, which started from theoretical problems concerning simulations among parallel computation models, and which results in methods, techniques, and implementations that lead to prototypical software systems for virtualizing storage in distributed data servers.
