Variability reduction and business process synchronization are acknowledged as key to achieving sharp and timely deliveries in supply chain networks. In this paper, we develop an ...
This article describes how control theory has been used to address the question of how to size the buffers in core Internet routers. Control theory aims to predict whether the net...
This paper focuses on non-strict processing, optimization, and partial evaluation of MPI programs which use incremental data structures (ISs). We describe the design and implement...
Reducing power consumption has become a major challenge in the design and operation of today's computer systems. This chapter describes different techniques addressing this c...
