The advent of SOA and Grid technology has brought new challenges to workflow operation and performance evaluation. In this paper, the characteristics of service-oriented workflow ...
During real-world design of embedded real-time systems, it cannot be expected that all performance data required for scheduling analysis is fully available up front. In such situa...
Early circuit performance estimation and easy-to-apply methods for minimum-delay gate sizing are needed, in order to enhance circuit’s performance and to increase designers’ pr...
Software engineering has traditionally focussed on functional requirements and how to build software that has few bugs and can be easily maintained. Most design approaches include...
In the past, processor design trends were dominated by increasingly complex feature sets, higher clock speeds, growing thermal envelopes and increasing power dissipation. Recently...
