Unique and challenging security problems arise due to the scarcity of computational, storage, and power resources in the low-cost pervasive computing environment. Particularly rel...
In the future, if we are to continue to expect improved application performance we will have to achieve it by exploiting course-grained hardware parallelism rather then simply rel...
This paper addresses the problem of scheduling parallel tasks, represented by a direct acyclic graph (DAG) on heterogeneous clusters. Parallel tasks, also called malleable tasks, ...
