This paper compares the performance of three classes of scheduling algorithms for real-time systems in which jobs may overrun their allocated processor time potentially causing th...
Low-overhead message passing is critical to the performance of many applications. Active Messages[27] reduce the software overhead for message handling: messages are run as handle...

In a cluster of multiple processors or cpu-cores, many processes may run on each compute node. Each process tends to issue contiguous I/O requests for snapshot, checkpointing or s...
Repetitive strain injuries and ergonomics concerns have become increasingly significant health issues as a growing number of individuals frequently use computers for long periods ...
