In this paper, we derive bounds on performance guarantees of online algorithms for real-time preemptive scheduling of jobs with deadlines on K machines when jobs are characterized ...
Chip Multiprocessors (CMPs) are now commodity hardware, but commoditization of parallel software remains elusive. In the near term, the current trend of increased coreper-socket c...
One result of the action of Moore’s Law, the doubling of IT (Information Technology) power every 18 months, is a widening gap in the understanding of this technology between tho...
The probability of failures in software distributed shared memory (SDSM) increases as the system size grows. This paper introduces a new, efficient message logging technique, call...
Branch prediction has enabled microprocessors to increase instruction level parallelism (ILP) by allowing programs to speculatively execute beyond control boundaries. Although spe...
