zFS is a research project aimed at building a decentralized file system that distributes all aspects of file and storage management over a set of cooperating machines interconne...
In this paper we explore the possibility of using commodity graphics processing units (GPUs) to speedup standard schedulability analysis algorithms. Our long-term goal is to explo...
