In this paper we consider server farms with a setup cost. This model is common in manufacturing systems and data centers, where there is a cost to turn servers on. Setup costs alw...
he significant increase in the available computational power that took place in recent decades has been accompanied by a growing interest in the application of the evolutionary ap...
—This paper provides analytical expressions to evaluate the performance of a random access wireless network in terms of user throughput and network throughput, subject to the con...
Target tracking is an important application of wireless sensor networks. In this application, the sensor nodes collectively monitor and track the movement of an event or target ob...
Energy consumption and heat dissipation have become key considerations for modern high performance computer systems. In this paper, we focus on non-clairvoyant speed scaling to mi...
