Abstract. In this paper we suggest a strategy to design job scheduling systems. To this end, we first split a scheduling system into three components: Scheduling policy, objective ...
Modern VLSI technology has changed the economic rules by which the balance between processing power, memory and communications is decided in computing systems. This will have a pr...
The model of bulk-synchronous parallel computation (BSP) helps to implement portable general purpose algorithms while keeping predictable performance on different parallel compute...
- Many memory-sensitive embedded applications can tolerate small performance degradations if doing so can reduce the memory space requirements significantly. This paper explores th...
A well-known problem in P2P systems is freeriding, where users do not share content if there is no incentive to do so. In this paper, we distinguish lazy freeriders that are merel...
