The increasing constraints on power consumption in many computing systems point to the need for power modeling and estimation for all components of a system. The Operating System ...
Abstract—We are developing a concurrent, agent-based approach to complex systems simulation as part of the CoSMoS project. In such simulations an agent’s behaviour can typicall...
Implementations of computer systems comprise many layers and employ a variety of programming languages. Building such systems requires support of an often complex, accompanying too...
Graphics and vision are approximate inverses of each other: ordinarily Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) are used to convert “numbers into pictures” (i.e. computer graphics). I...
Today's transactional memory systems implement the two-phase-locking (2PL) algorithm which aborts transactions every time a conflict happens. 2PL is a simple algorithm that pr...
