Recent work in high-performance computing has shifted attention to PC clusters.. For PC-clusters, member nodes are independent computers connected by generalpurpose networks. The ...
We propose a new cryptographic primitive called oblivious signaturebased envelope (OSBE). Informally, an OSBE scheme enables a sender to send an envelope (encrypted message) to a ...
The real-time scheduling advisor (RTSA) is an entirely userlevel system that an application running on a typical shared, unreserved distributed computing environment can turn to f...
Desktop Grids have become very popular nowadays, with projects that include hundred of thousands computers. Desktop grid scheduling faces two challenges. First, the platform is vo...
Basic retiming is an algorithm originally developed for hardware optimization. Software pipelining is a technique proposed to increase instruction-level parallelism for parallel p...
