Many algorithms to schedule DAGs on multiprocessors have been proposed, but there has been little work done to determine their effectiveness. Since multi-processor scheduling is a...

An operational profile is a quantification of the expected use of a system. Determining an operational profile for software is a crucial and difficult part of software reliability...

We describe an incomplete but sound and efficient livelock freedom test for infinite state asynchronous reactive systems. The method s a system into a set of simple control flow cy...
The paper presents a method for generating solutions of a constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) uniformly at random. The main idea is to express the CSP as a factored probability d...
New file systems are critical to obtain good I/O performance on large multiprocessors. Several researchers have suggested the use of collective file-system operations, in which ...
