It is well known that in a typical real-time system, certain parameters, such as the execution time of a job, are not fixed numbers. In such systems, it is common to characterize ...
Parasitic extraction techniques are used to estimate signal delay in VLSI chips. Inductance extraction is a critical component of the parasitic extraction process in which on-chip ...
Abstract. We consider the problem of redistributing data on homogeneous and heterogeneous processor rings. The problem arises in several applications, each time after a load-balanc...
This paper describes the motivation, architecture and implementation of iSAN, an “intelligent” storage area network. The main contributions of this work are: (1) how to archite...
Abstract. This paper investigates the problem of autonomously allocating a large number of independent, equal sized tasks on a distributed heterogeneous grid-like platform, using o...
In this paper, we present a system capable of improving the I/O performance in an automatic way. This system is able to learn the behavior of the applications running on top and ...
Abstract. The Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) is a snapshot of the Universe some 400,000 years after the Big Bang. The pattern of anisotropies in the CMB carries a wealth of info...
In this paper we describe a novel strategy for carrying out lookups in Chord-based peer-to-peer (P2P) networks, wherein nodes are assumed to behave selfishly. This is in contrast ...
