— Two fundamental properties of wireless networks, the variable link quality and the broadcast nature of the transmission, have often been ignored in the design of routing protoc...
This paper describes Rthreads (Remote threads), a software distributed shared memory system that supports sharing of global variables on clusters of computers with physically dist...
— Since the advent of distributed computer systems an active field of research has been the investigation of scheduling strategies for parallel applications. The common approach...
Before an application modelled as a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) is executed on a heterogeneous system, a DAG mapping policy is often enacted. After mapping, the tasks (in the DAG...
