With the shift towards chip multiprocessors (CMPs), exploiting and managing parallelism has become a central problem in computer systems. Many issues of parallelism management boi...
In this paper we consider the model of communication where wireless devices can either switch their radios off to save energy (and hence, can neither send nor receive messages), o...
The load/store queue (LSQ) is one of the most complex parts of contemporary processors. Its latency is critical for the processor performance and it is usually one of the processo...
Sensor networks have emerged as an interesting and important research area in the last few years. In order to construct a wireless sensor network, synchronization of base stations...
Disk power management is becoming increasingly important in high-end server and cluster type of environments that execute dataintensive applications. While hardware-only approache...
