The 13th International Conference on Parallel Computing was held in August 2007. The conference attracted researchers from around the world who came to share their findings and discuss the latest developments and applications in the field. This volume constitutes the refereed proceedings of the conference.
Inside are 89 revised papers. All of them were carefully reviewed. As a result, each one meets the highest standards of research and scholarship. Collectively, the papers offer readers some of the most important findings and applications in parallel computing.
The papers are organized into topical sections covering support tools and environments, performance prediction and evaluation, scheduling and load balancing, compilers for high performance, parallel and distributed databases, grid and cluster computing, peer-to-peer computing, distributed systems and algorithms, parallel and distributed programming, parallel numerical algorithms, distributed and high performance multimedia, theory and algorithms for parallel computation, high performance networks, and mobile and ubiquitous computing.
