Non-uniform utilization of functional units in combination with hardware mechanisms such as clock gating leads to different power consumptions in different parts of a processor ch...
Parallel machines are typically space shared, or time shared such that only one application executes on a group of nodes at any given time. It is generally assumed that executing ...
We have developed SWAP, a system that automatically detects process dependencies and accounts for such dependencies in scheduling. SWAP uses system call history to determine possi...
Multicore architectures, which have multiple processing units on a single chip, have been adopted by most chip manufacturers. Most such chips contain on-chip caches that are share...
Abstract—This paper looks at the scalability problems inherent in the Active Bat system: an outside-in ultrasonic location system. Such systems are typically associated with high...
