Temporal dependence within the workload of any computing or networking system has been widely recognized as a significant factor affecting performance. More specifically, burstin...

Size-based policies have been shown in the literature to effectively balance load and improve performance in cluster environments. Size-based policies assign jobs to servers based...
Branch taken rate and transition rate have been proposed as metrics to characterize the branch predictability. However, these two metrics may misclassify branches with regular his...
We have proposed a three-parameter renewal approximation to analyze splitting and superposition of autocorrelated processes. We define the index of dispersion for counts of an ord...
Size-based policies have been known to successfully balance load and improve performance in homogeneous cluster environments where a dispatcher assigns a job to a server strictly ...
