When the processing times of jobs are controllable, selected processing times affect both the manufacturing cost and the scheduling performance.A well-known example for such a cas...
In parallel systems, similar jobs tend to arrive within bursty periods. This fact leads to the existence of the locality phenomenon, a persistent similarity between nearby jobs, in...
Having reliable security in systems is of the utmost importance. However, the existing framework of writing, distributing and linking against code in the form of libraries and/or ...
As parallel jobs get bigger in size and finer in granularity, “system noise” is increasingly becoming a problem. In fact, fine-grained jobs on clusters with thousands of SMP...
