Voltage-frequency scaling (VFS) trades a linear processor slowdown for a potentially quadratic reduction in energy consumption. Complex dependencies may exist between different tas...
Within a camera network, the contribution of a camera to the observations of a scene depends on its viewpoint and on the scene configuration. This is a dynamic property, as the sc...
The allocation of lock objects to critical sections in concurrent programs affects both performance and correctness. Recent work explores automatic lock allocation, aiming primari...

Load latency remains a signi cant bottleneck in dynamically scheduled pipelined processors. Load speculation techniques have been proposed to reduce this latency. Dependence Predi...
We consider complex scheduling problems that can be captured as optimization under hard and soft constraints. The objective of such an optimization problem is to satisfy as many h...
