Computational grids offer users a simple access to tremendous computer resources for solving large scale computing problems. Traditional performance analysis of scheduling algorit...
In this paper, we address the power-aware scheduling of sporadic constrained-deadline hard real-time tasks using dynamic voltage scaling upon multiprocessor platforms. We propose ...
— In wireless communications, shadow fading can cause at least 6 dB power loss for 10% of the time [1]. Early detection of shadow fading plays an important part in facilitating t...
