We propose a novel heterogeneous scalable desktop grid system, WaveGrid, which uses a peer-to-peer architecture and can satisfy the needs of applications with fastturnaround requi...
Energy conservation is an important issue in the design of embedded systems. Dynamic Voltage Scaling (DVS) and Dynamic Power Management (DPM) are two widely used techniques for sav...
Many of today's complex computer applications are being modeled and constructed using the principles inherent to real-time distributed object systems. In response to this dem...
Heterogeneous architectures are currently widespread. With the advent of easy-to-program general purpose GPUs, virtually every recent desktop computer is a heterogeneous system. Co...
The management of tasks is an essential requirement in most real-time and embedded systems, but invariably leads to unwanted CPU overheads. This paper is concerned with task manage...
