When the processing times of jobs are controllable, selected processing times affect both the manufacturing cost and the scheduling performance.A well-known example for such a cas...
QoS Routing has been studied to provide evidence that it can increase network utilization compared to routing that is insensitive to QoS traffic requirements. However, because of i...
Recently, the use of wireless sensor networks has spread to applications areas that are not viable or costefficient to be run on other types of networks. Due to some critical tasks...
Integration--supporting multiple application classes with heterogeneous requirements--is an emerging trend in networks, file systems, and operating systems. In this paper, we eval...
This paper proposes a massively parallel hardware architecture for efficient tracing of incoherent rays, e.g. for global illumination. The general approach is centered around hier...
