Dataflow computation models enable simpler and more efficient management of the memory hierarchy - a key barrier to the performance of many parallel programs. This paper describes...
The increasing role of communication networks in today’s society results in a demand for higher levels of network availability and reliability. At the same time, fault managemen...
Speed scaling is a power management technique that involves dynamically changing the speed of a processor. This gives rise to dualobjective scheduling problems, where the operating...
Rising energy costs in large data centers are driving an agenda for energy-efficient computing. In this paper, we focus on the role of database software in affecting, and, ultimat...
Minimizing energy consumption is an important issue in the design of real-time embedded systems. As many embedded systems are powered by rechargeable batteries, the goal is to ext...
