Abstract— Dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) is a powerful technique for reducing dynamic power consumption in a computing system. However, as technology feature size continues to sca...
Recently, we presented two very low-cost approaches to compile-time list scheduling where the tasks’ priorities are computed statically or dynamically, respectively. For homogen...
While the MPP is still the most common architecture in supercomputer centers today, a simpler and cheaper machine configuration is growing increasingly common. This alternative s...
We consider the execution of a complex application on a heterogeneous "grid" computing platform. The complex application consists of a suite of identical, independent pr...
