Clustered machines partition hardware resources to circumvent the cycle time penalties incurred by large, monolithic structures. This partitioning introduces a long inter-cluster ...
Group communication provides one-to-many communication primitives that simplify the development of highly available services. Despite advances in research and numerous prototypes,...
The availability of a P2P service is a function of the individual peers’ availabilities, and it is often desirable to estimate how available a particular P2P service will be giv...

Abstract— Time-critical jobs in many real-time applications have multiple feasible intervals. Such a job is constrained to execute from start to completion in one of its feasible...

— This paper is interested in reward maximization of periodic real-time tasks under a given energy constraint, where the reward received depends on how much computation a task ru...
