Abstract— Content replication and distribution is an effective technology to reduce the response time for web accesses and has been proven quite popular among large Internet cont...
—The emergence of multi-core computers has led to explosive development of parallel applications and hence the need of efficient schedulers for parallel jobs. Adaptive online sc...
Irregular and iterative I/O-intensive jobs need a different approach from parallel job schedulers. The focus in this case is not only the processing requirements anymore: memory, ...
Software distributed shared memory (DSM) techniques, while effective on applications with coarse-grained sharing, yield poor performance for the fine-grained sharing encountered i...
The continued scaling of device dimensions and the operating voltage reduces the critical charge and thus natural noise tolerance level of transistors. As a result, circuits can p...
