Resource management is an important infrastructure in the grid computing environment. Scalability and adaptability are two key challenges in the implementation of such complex sof...
In this paper we outline a typology, which will be useful for those engaged in the design and customization of information systems in healthcare. Drawing on ethnographic case stud...
We study the stochastic machine replenishment problem, which is a canonical special case of closed multiclass queuing systems in Markov decision theory. The problem models the sche...
Software systems have become increasingly complex over the years. Complexity metrics measures software complexity using real numbers. It is, however, hard to gain insight into dif...
MEMS-based storage devices (MEMStores) are significantly different from both disk drives and semiconductor memories. The differences motivate the queswhether they need new abstrac...
