With the advances in server technology, and the advent of fast Gigabit networks, it has become possible to support multi-media applications. To support the requirements for the tr...
Recent advances in storage and communication technologies have spurred a strong interest in Video-on-Demand (VOD) services. Providing the customers of VOD servers with time of serv...
Scheduling DAGs with communication times is the theoretical basis for achieving efficient parallelism on distributed memory systems. We generalize Graham's task-level in a ma...
Abstract-- We study the communication primitive of broadcasting (one-to-all communication) in known topology radio networks, i.e., where for each primitive the schedule of transmis...
The problem of scheduling independent tasks on heterogeneous trees is considered. The nodes of the tree may have different processing times, and links different communication time...
