Abstract: "Parallelization of a constraint logic programming (CLP) language can be considered at two major levels; the execution of an inference engine and a solver in parallel, and the execution of a solver in parallel. GDCC is a parallel CLP language that satisfies this two level parallelism. It is implemented in KL1 and is currently running on the Multi-PSI, a loosely coupled distributed memory parallel machine. GDCC has multiple solvers and a block mechanism that enables meta-operation to a constraint set. Currently there are three solvers: an algebraic solver for nonlinear algebraic equations using the Buchberger algorithm, a boolean solver for boolean equations using the Boolean Buchberger algorithm, and a linear integer solver for mixed integer programming. The Buchberger algorithm is a basic technology for symbolic algebra, and several attempts at its parallelization have appeared in the recent literature, with some good results for shared memory machines. The algorithm we present is designed for the distributed memory machine, but nevertheless shows consistently good performance and speedups for a number of standard benchmarks from the literature."

Logic programming enjoys a privileged position. It is firmly rooted in mathematical logic, yet it is also immensely practical, as a growing number of users in universities, research institutes, and industry are realizing. Logic programming languages, specifically Prolog, have turned out to be ideal as prototyping and application development languages. This volume presents the proceedings of the Second Logic Programming Summer School, LPSS'92. The First Logic Programming Summer School, LPSS '90, addressed the theoretical foundations of logic programming. This volume focuses onthe relationship between theory and practice, and on practical applications. The introduction to the volume is by R. Kowalski, one of the pioneers in the field. The following papers are organized into sections on constraint logic programming, deductive databases and expert systems, processing of natural and formal languages, software engineering, and education.

Single processing units have now reached a point where further major improvements in their performance are restricted by their physical limitations. This is causing a slowing down in advances at the same time as new scientific challenges are demanding exascale speed. This has meant that parallel processing has become key to High Performance Computing (HPC). This book contains the proceedings of the 14th biennial ParCo conference, ParCo2011, held in Ghent, Belgium. The ParCo conferences have traditionally concentrated on three main themes: Algorithms, Architectures and Applications. Nowadays though, the focus has shifted from traditional multiprocessor topologies to heterogeneous and manycores, incorporating standard CPUs, GPUs (Graphics Processing Units) and FPGAs (Field Programmable Gate Arrays). These platforms are, at a higher abstraction level, integrated in clusters, grids and clouds. The papers presented here reflect this change of focus. New architectures, programming tools and techniques are also explored, and the need for exascale hardware and software was also discussed in the industrial session of the conference.This book will be of interest to all those interested in parallel computing today, and progress towards the exascale computing of tomorrow.
