Design and Performance Analysis of a Distributed Java Virtual Machine
Authors: Mihai Surdeanu, Dan Moldovan
Venue: IEEE Transactions on Parallel and Distributed Systems (2002)

This paper introduces DISK, a distributed Java Virtual Machine for networks of heterogenous workstations. Several research issues are addressed. A novelty of the system is its object-based, multiple-writer memory consistency protocol (OMW). The correctness of the protocol and its Java compliance is demonstrated by comparing the nonoperational definitions of Release Consistency, the consistency model implemented by OMW, with the Java Virtual Machine memory consistency model (JVMC), as defined in the Java Virtual Machine Specification. An analytical performance model was developed to study and compare the design trade-offs between OMW and the lazy invalidate Release Consistency (LI) protocols as a function of the number of processors, network characteristics, and application types. The DISK system has been implemented and running on a network of 16 Pentium III computers interconnected by a 100Mbps Ethernet network. Experiments performed with two applications: parallel matrix multiplication and traveling salesman problem confirm the analytical model.

Associative Clustering for Clusters of Arbitrary Distribution Shapes
Authors: Yuhui Yao, Lihui Chen, Yan Qiu Chen
Venue: Neural Processing Letters (2001)

A novel neural network, named Associative Clustering Neural Network (ACNN), is developed for clustering data whose underlying distribution shapes are arbitrary. ACNN is a dynamic model that collectively measures and updates the similarity of any two patterns through the interaction of a group of patterns. Such a new measure of similarity helps to achieve more robust clustering performance than using the existing measures that are staticly and individually based on the distances among the isolated pairwise data. The efficience of ACNN has been verified through the performance study.
L.E.O.: The Incredible Story of the World's First Business Computer
Authors: David Caminer, Frank Land, John Aris, Peter Hermon
Venue:  (1997)

:This book takes you behind the scenes at the creation of the world's first business computer - the precursor to every computer in every office around the world. It places you in the midst of a dynamic group of creative people - visionaries who were the first to recognize the potential and harness the power of computing for business purposes. Written by the real-life participants in these exciting events, it "depicts the scene frankly, warts and all," as David Caminer, the pioneering team leader, writes in his preface. LEO reveals the strange and remarkable tale of how Lyons - a venerable tea-and-cake company - bred, incubated, and hatched that history-making business computer. In 1951, less than 2 years after the project was initiated, LEO went on-line as the world's first business computer. A forerunner to the IBM mainframes, LEO was the first computer to run a payroll, the first to perform inventories, and the first to track product distribution - as well as the first to calculate the blending of fine, flavorful, and cost-effective cups of tea.
