Pipeline Home Page


Introduction
    Pipelining was the main research topic of my PhD, "The Effective Management of Distributed Computation".  These are not the pipelines that your water comes in, but it's a paradigm for computing over a loosely coupled network (ie. the Internet).

My PhD also covers scheduling, distribution, security, transparency & scaling.

I no longer work at Loughborough University, but my current details can be obtained from my personal home page.

PDF(PDF)
    This is a presentation which I gave to Electronic and Electrical Engineering at Surrey University on the 27th August 1997. The same presentation has been given to Dept. of Computer Studies at Loughborough University on the 22nd October 1997.

Scheduling
Paper
(HTML)
    This paper represents some of my work from 1995/96, but with an up-to-date slant so that it looks like a current paper. It tackles the scheduling problems associated with highly loaded distributed systems which are using near optimal scheduling algorithms.
     
1st Year
Report
(HTML)
    My 1st year report was finished in April 1996. This report is outdated now and has a few inaccuracies, but it does indicate some of my research content.
     
ITA Module
    This is the final practical for the ITA module 1996/97, and was designed to be completed in the PC lab in the Computer Studies department. I taught the ITA (Information Technology Applications) module for two years beginning 1995/96.  I covered word processing and networking (WWW & email).

Statistics
By accesses
By name
    I hate page counters, because they just don't work very well and they slow down the loading of pages. I do it the good old way.

Here are the statistics about the accesses to these pages, compiled every morning from the access logs on this server. This service was suspended October 1998, but it's still quite un-interesting to read!

HTML Hacks
    This is where I deposit all the HTML I'm testing for people. This stuff can be bad for your browser's health. You have been warned.
