We consider the problem of maximizing the reliability of a series-parallel system given cost and weight constraints on the system. The number of components in each subsystem and th...
The computing community has long faced the problem of scientifically comparing different computers and different algorithms. When architecture, method, precision, or storage capac...
Master/Slave Speculative Parallelization (MSSP) is an execution paradigm for improving the execution rate of sequential programs by parallelizing them speculatively for execution ...
Instruction Balanced Time Slicing IBTS allows multiple parallel jobs to be scheduled in a manner akin to the well-known gang scheduling scheme in parallel computers. IBTS however a...
Software pipelining is a loop optimization that overlaps the execution of several iterations of a loop to expose more instruction-level parallelism. It can result in first-class p...
