Due to increasing clock speeds and shrinking technologies, distributing a single global clock signal throughout a chip is becoming a difficult and challenging proposition. In this...
This paper presents an energy management policy for reconfigurable clusters running a multi-tier application, exploiting DVS together with multiple sleep states. We develop a the...
Peer-to-peer (P2P) systems are slowly moving from application-specific architectures to a generic serviceoriented design framework. The idea is to allow a dynamic collection of P...
Failure detectors represent a very important building block in distributed applications. The speed and the accuracy of the failure detectors is critical to the performance of the ...
