note = "Funding Information: A.R. Hurson is a Computer Science and Engineering Faculty at The Pennsylvania State University. His research for the past 18 years has been directed toward the design and analysis of general as well as special purpose computer architectures. His research has been supported by NSF, NCR Corp., DARPA, IBM, Lockheed Martin, and Penn State University. He has published over 180 technical papers in areas including database systems, multidatabases, object oriented databases, computer architecture and cache memory, parallel and distributed processing, dataflow architectures, and VLSI algorithms. Dr. Hurson served as the Guest Co-Editor of special issues of the IEEE Proceedings on Supercomputing Technology, the Journal of Parallel and Distributed Computing on Load Balancing and Scheduling, the journal of integrated computer-aided engineering on multidatabase and interoperable systems, and IEEE Transactions on Computers on Parallel Architectures and Compilation Techniques. He is the co-author of the IEEE Tutorials on Parallel Architectures for Database Systems, Multidatabase systems: An advanced solution for global information sharing, Parallel architectures for data/knowledge base systems, and Scheduling and Load Balancing in Parallel and Distributed Systems. He is also the Co-founder of the IEEE Symposium on Parallel and Distributed Processing (currently IPDPS).",
