We propose an improved restart strategy for randomized backtrack search, and evaluate its performance by comparing to other heuristic and stochastic search techniques for solving r...
Given the scale of massively parallel systems, occurrence of faults is no longer an exception but a regular event. Periodic checkpointing is becoming increasingly important in the...
In this paper, we present GateScript, a scripting language for active applications to be executed on generic active gateways. Unlike other active networking platforms, it offers a...
This paper introduces a new benchmark tool for evaluating performance and availability (performability) of networked storage systems, specifically storage area network (SAN) that...
This paper presents an efficient methodology for estimating the energy consumption of application programs running on extensible processors. Extensible processors, which are incr...
