Due to the roaring power dissipation and gaining popularity of 3D integration, thermal dissipation has been a critical concern of modern VLSI design. The availability for chip-lev...
Distributed systems are typically designed for scale and performance first, which makes it difficult to add security later without affecting the original properties. This paper ...
A problem with many distributed applications is their behavior in lieu of unpredictable variations in user request volumes or in available resources. This paper explores a performa...
In self-organizing networks of battery-powered wireless sensors that can sense, process, and communicate, energy is the most crucial and scarce resource. However, since sensor netw...
Scheduling parallel and distributed applications efficiently onto grid environments is a difficult task and a great variety of scheduling heuristics have been developed aiming to ...
