This paper presents the design of user-level scheduling hierarchies in the Composite component-based system. The motivation for this is centered around the design of a system that...
ShareStreams (Scalable Hardware Architectures for Stream Schedulers) is a canonical architecture for realizing a range of scheduling disciplines. This paper discusses the design c...
The programming and retasking of sensor nodes could benefit greatly from the use of a virtual machine (VM) since byte code is compact, can be loaded on demand, and interpreted on...
An emerging tapestry of computations will soon integrate systems around the globe. It will evolve without central control. Its complexity will be vast. We need new ideas, tools an...
Numerous data center services exhibit low average utilization leading to poor energy efficiency. Although CPU voltage and frequency scaling historically has been an effective mea...
