— Providing delay guarantees to time-sensitive traffic in future wireless multimedia networks is a challenging issue. This is due to the time-varying link capacities and the vari...
Abstract. We consider the issue of task assignment in a distributed system under heavy-tailed (ie. highly variable) workloads. A new adaptable approach called TAPTF (Task Assignmen...
We consider a system with two service classes with heterogeneous traffic characteristics and Quality-of-Service requirements. The available bandwidth is shared between the two tra...
The counterflow pipeline concept was originated by Sproull et al.[1] to demonstrate the concept of asynchronous circuits. This architecture relies on distributed decision making an...
Future scalable, high throughput, and high performance applications are likely to execute on platforms constructed by clustering multiple autonomous distributed servers, with reso...
