Analytical models for the dynamics of some discrete event systems are introduced where the system trajectories are solutions to linear and mixed-integer programs. 1 BACKGROUND The...
With increasingly smaller feature sizes and higher on-chip densities, the power dissipation of VLSI systems has become a primary concern for designers. This paper first describes...
People often seek information by asking other people even when they have access to vast reservoirs of information such as the Internet and libraries. This is because people are gr...
In mobile ad hoc networks, node mobility causes links between nodes to break frequently, thus terminating the lifetime of the routes containing those links. An alternative route h...
This paper describes PRISM, a distributed sharedmemory architecture that relies on a tightly integrated hardware and operating system design for scalable and reliable performance....
