Abstract :
New synchronization mechanisms using asynchronous computation activation and cancellation, based on state monitoring of a parallel application, are presented. The paper proposes how to integrate the mechanisms with the GRADE graphical parallel program design environment. Necessary enhancements to the GUI along with the semantics and possible applications are presented. Efficient implementation methods for the proposed synchronization are discussed.
