Application specific tuning has been shown to be beneficial for a variety of platforms, sensor-based systems are no exception. However, accurately capturing external stimuli or mo...
Unique and challenging security problems arise due to the scarcity of computational, storage, and power resources in the low-cost pervasive computing environment. Particularly rel...
With the shrinking of transistors continuing to follow Moore's Law and the non-scalability of conventional outof-order processors, multi-core systems are becoming the design ...
—Many time-critical applications require predictable performance and tasks in these applications have deadlines to be met. In this paper, we propose an efficient algorithm for no...
Streamlining communication is key to achieving good performance in shared-memory parallel programs. While full hardware support for cache coherence generally offers the best perfo...
