In the past, efficient parallel algorithms have always been developed specifically for the successive generations of parallel systems (vector machines, shared-memory machines, d...
Biologists studying the evolutionary relationships between organisms use software packages to solve the computational problems they encounter. Several of these problems involve th...
On-chip communication design includes designing software (SW) parts (operating system, device drivers, interrupt service routines, etc.) as well as hardware (HW) parts (on-chip co...
A problem that has been getting prominence in testing is that of looking for intermittent bugs. Multi-threaded code is becoming very common, mostly on the server side. As there is...
Quality of service (QoS) assurance is a major concern in media-on-demand (MoD) systems. Admission control is one of the most important issues that need to be addressed for QoS ass...
