We investigate operating system noise, which we identify as one of the main reasons for a lack of synchronicity in parallel applications. Using a microbenchmark, we measure the no...

Measuring structural design properties of a software system, such as coupling, cohesion, or complexity, is a promising approach towards early quality assessments. To use such meas...
This paper studies the mechanical configuration and the periodic gaits of multi-legged locomotion systems based on its kinematic and dynamic models. The purpose is to determine the...
Abstract-- Recent results in networked control systems indicate substantial benefits of event-based control compared to conventional designs. This paper identifies structural prope...
With the emergence of grid computing environment, performance measurement, analysis and prediction of non-dedicated distributed systems have become increasingly important. In this...
