— Scheduling by Edge Reversal (SER) is a fully distributed scheduling mechanism based on the manipulation of acyclic orientations of a graph. This work uses SER to perform constr...
Abstract. We study the problem of dynamic load-balancing on hierarchical platforms. In particular, we consider applications involving heavy communications on a distributed platform...
Bandit based methods for tree search have recently gained popularity when applied to huge trees, e.g. in the game of go [6]. Their efficient exploration of the tree enables to ret...
A staggering number of multimedia applications are being introduced every day. Yet, the inordinate delays encountered in retrieving multimedia documents make it difficult to use t...
Traditional circuit design focuses on optimizing the static critical paths no matter how infrequently these paths are exercised dynamically. Circuit optimization is then tuned to ...
