Network applications and services need to be environment-aware in order to meet non-functional requirements in increasingly dynamic contexts. In this paper we consider partition a...
Automatic performance tuning (auto-tuning) has been used in parallel numerical applications for adapting performance-relevant parameters. We extend auto-tuning to general-purpose ...

Context-awareness allows pervasive applications to adapt to changeable computing environments. Contexts, the pieces of information that capture the characteristics of environments...
We present Lazy Binary Splitting (LBS), a user-level scheduler of nested parallelism for shared-memory multiprocessors that builds on existing Eager Binary Splitting work-stealing...
