XOR-based erasure codes are a computationallyefficient means of generating redundancy in storage systems. Some such erasure codes provide irregular fault tolerance: some subsets o...
— Achieving reliability in fault tolerant systems requires both avoidance and redundancy. This study focuses on avoidance as it pertains to the design of microchips. The lifecycl...
Data centers are a major consumer of electricity and a significant fraction of their energy use is devoted to cooling the data center. Recent prototype deployments have investigat...
—Application mobility is an efficient way to mask uneven conditioning and reduce users’ distractions in pervasive environments. However, since mobility brings more dynamism and...
We present a parameter synthesis algorithm for planar, higher pair mechanical systems. The input is a parametric model of a mechanical system (part shapes and configurations) with...
