Parallel I/O plays an increasingly important role in today’s data intensive computing applications. While much attention has been paid to parallel read performance, most of this...
Very thorough online self-test is essential for overcoming major reliability challenges such as early-life failures and transistor aging in advanced technologies. This paper demon...
Distributed multimedia applications will be an important part of tomorrow's application mix and require appropriate operating system (OS) support. Neither hard real-time solu...
Computer systems are resource constrained. Application adaptation is a useful way to optimize system resource usage while satisfying the application performance constraints. Previ...
Most of the hard-real-time scheduling theory for multiprocessor systems assumes independent periodic or sporadic tasks. Such a simple task model is not directly applicable to mode...
