Abstract--In this article we present KRASH, a tool for reproducible generation of system-level CPU load. This tool is intended for use in shared memory machines equipped with multi...
Dynamically allocating computing nodes to parallel applications is a promising technique for improving the utilization of cluster resources. Detailed simulations can help identify...

We show two severe problems with the state of the art in empirical computer system performance evaluation, observer effect and measurement context bias, and we outline the path to...
The problem of task assignment in heterogeneous computing systems has been studied for many years with many variations. We have developed a new hybrid approximation algorithm. The...
