Recent evidence suggests that some characteristics of computer and telecommunications systems may be well described using heavy tailed distributions — distributions whose tail d...
One of the challenges in building analytic performance models such as queuing network models is obtaining service demands for the various workloads and various devices. While some...
Divisible workload applications arise in many fields of science and engineering. They can be parallelized in master-worker fashion and relevant scheduling strategies have been pr...
Large data centers host several application environments (AEs) that are subject to workloads whose intensity varies widely and unpredictably. Therefore, the servers of the data ce...
Until recently, most 3D graphics applications had been regarded as too computationally intensive for devices other than desktop computers and gaming consoles. This notion is rapid...
