Conference Proceeding
Chalmers, K. (2012). A comparison of Message Passing Interface and Communicating Process Architecture networking communication performance. In P. Welch, F. R. M. Barnes, K. Chalmers, J. B. Pedersen, & A. T. Sampson (Eds.), Communicating Process Architectures 2012 (107-120)

Message Passing Interface (MPI) is a popular approach to enable Single Process, Multiple Data (SPMD) style parallel computing, particularly in cluster computing environments. Communicating Process Architecture (CPA) Networking on the other hand, has...

T. Sampson, & G. S. Vinter (Eds.), Communicating Process Architectures 2009 - WoTUG-32 (363-373). https://doi.org/10.3233/978-1-60750-065-0-363

Device and service discovery is a very important topic when considering pervasive environments. The discovery mechanism is required to work in networks with dynamic topology and on limited software, and be able to accept different device descriptions...

Sampson, …B. Vinter (Eds.), Communicating Process Architectures 2009 WoTUG-32. https://doi.org/10.3233/978-1-60750-065-0-197

In this paper, we discuss the implementation of a simple pedestrian simulation that uses a multi agent based design pattern developed by the CoSMoS research group. Given the nature of Multi Agent Systems (MAS), parallel processing techniques are inev... Read More about An application of CoSMoS design methods to pedestrian simulation..

Broenink, H. Roebbers, & A. T. Sampson (Eds.), Communicating Process Architectures 2009 (205-223). https://doi.org/10.3233/978-1-60750-065-0-205

Localised mobile channel support is now a feature of Communicating Process Architecture (CPA) based frameworks, from JCSP and C++CSP to occam-pi. Distributed mobile channel support has also been attempted in JCSP Networking and occam-pi via the pony...

The mobile agent concept has been developed over a number of years and is widely accepted as one way of solving problems that require the achievement of a goal that cannot be serviced at a specific node in a network. The concept of a mobile process i... Read More about Mobile agents and processes using communicating process architectures..
