We describe a new network service, the “ticket server”. This service provides “tickets” that a client can attach to a request for a network service (such as sending email o...
We consider the problem of finding an optimal clock schedule, i.e. optimal arrival times for clock signals at latches of a VLSI chip. We describe a general model which includes al...
MPEG-4 video consists of various video objects, rather than frames, allowing a true interactivity and manipulation of separate arbitrary shape object. Soware-based encoding of MPE...
† This paper describes a novel methodology to automate the design of the interconnect distribution for multistage clock circuits. We introduce two key ideas. First, a hierarchica...
Efficiently scheduling parallel tasks on to the processors of a shared-memory multiprocessor is critical to achieving high performance. Given perfect information at compile-time, ...
