In this paper we tackle the task assignment problem (TSAP) in heterogeneous computer systems. The TSAP consists of assigning a given distributed computer program formed by a numbe...
— We consider the problem of supporting absolute QoS guarantees in terms of the end-to-end burst loss in OBS networks. We present a parameterized model for wavelength sharing whi...
Energy is one of the limited resources for modern systems, especially the battery-operated devices and personal digital assistants. The backlog in new technologies for more powerf...
— We consider an end-to-end approach of inferring network faults that manifest in multiple protocol layers, with an optimization goal of minimizing the expected cost of correctin...
-- The goal of a dynamic power management policy is to reduce the power consumption of an electronic system by putting system components into different states, each representing ce...
