Switched Processing Systems (SPS) capture the essence of a fundamental resource allocation problem in many modern communication, computer and manufacturing systems involving hetero...
—Large scale production grids are a major case for autonomic computing. Following the classical definition of Kephart, an autonomic computing system should optimize its own beha...
Often server systems do not implement the best known algorithms for optimizing average Quality of Service (QoS) out of concern of that these algorithms may be insufficiently fair ...
A multiprocessor virtual machine benefits its guest operating system in supporting scalable job throughput and request latency--useful properties in server consolidation where ser...
In Simultaneous Multithreaded (SMT) architectures most hardware resources are shared between threads. This provides a good cost/performance trade-off which renders these architec...
