This paper develops time-based rejuvenation policies to improve the performability measures of a cluster system. Three rejuvenation policies, namely standard rejuvenation, delayed...
Early evaluation allows to execute operations when enough information at the inputs has been received to determine the value at the outputs. Systems that can tolerate variable-lat...
This paper explores the power implications of replacing global chip wires with an on-chip network. We optimize network links by varying repeater spacing, link pipelining, and volt...
--This paper presents a novel approach to evaluate the response time in networked automation systems (NAS) that use a client/server protocol. The developments introduced are derive...
—The distributed nature of the CSMA/CA based wireless protocols, e.g., the IEEE 802.11 distributed coordinated function (DCF), allows malicious nodes to deliberately manipulate t...
