Abstract— In this paper, we propose a selection technique for replicated multicast video streams from different servers. We assume that there exist replicated video servers, each...
Energy consumption and heat dissipation have become key considerations for modern high performance computer systems. In this paper, we focus on non-clairvoyant speed scaling to mi...
We introduce the k-payment problem: given a total budget of N units, the problem is to represent this budget as a set of coins, so that any k exact payments of total value at most ...
