We propose a low overhead, on-line memory monitoring scheme utilizing a set of novel hardware counters. The counters act like pressure gauges indicating the marginal gain in the n...
Energy reduction is critical to increase the mobility and to extend the mission period in the development of today’s pervasive computing systems. On the other hand, however, ene...
In this paper we tackle the problem of scheduling a periodic real-time system on identical multiprocessor platforms, moreover the tasks considered may fail with a given probabilit...
In the partially-ordered knapsack problem (POK) we are given a set N of items and a partial order ≺P on N. Each item has a size and an associated weight. The objective is to pac...
—We analyze a comprehensive model for multi-class job scheduling accounting for user abandonment, with the objective of minimizing the total discounted or time-average sum of lin...
