We propose, and justify, an economic theory to guide memory system design, operation, and analysis. Our theory treats memory random-access latency, and its cost per installed mega...
In this paper we consider the problem of maximising utility in linked market-driven distributed and Grid systems. In such systems, users submit jobs through brokers who can virtua...
Enabling high performance, persistent mobile computing has recently become a very active research area. The widespread popularity of mobile computing devices, such as laptops, han...
