Customisable embedded processors are becoming available on the market, thus making it possible for designers to speed up execution of applications by using Application-specific F...
Software Product-lines (SPLs) use modular software components that can be reconfigured into different variants for different requirements sets. Feature modeling is a common method...
— Clock frequency and transistor density increases have resulted in elevated chip temperatures. In order to meet temperature constraints while still exploiting the performance op...
Decentralized Markov Decision Processes (DEC-MDPs) are a popular model of agent-coordination problems in domains with uncertainty and time constraints but very difficult to solve...
We derive analytically, the performance optimal throttling curve for a processor under thermal constraints for a given task sequence. We found that keeping the chip temperature co...
