We describe and evaluate a strategy for declustering the parity encoding in a redundant disk array. This declustered parity organization balances cost against data reliability and...
The challenge we address is to reason about projected resource usage within a hierarchical task execution framework in order to improve agent effectiveness. Specifically, we seek ...
Excessive buffer requirement to handle continuous-media playbacks is an impediment to costeffective provisioning for on-line video retrieval. Given the skewed distribution of video...
Real-time embedded systems increasingly rely on dynamic power management to balance between power and performance goals. In this paper, we present a technique for continuous frequ...
— This paper addresses planning of continuous paths for mobile sensors to improve long-term forecast performance. With the information gain defined by the mutual information bet...
