: IEEE 802.11 is a wireless network standard that was completed in 1997. Unfortunately, the medium access protocol described in the standard meets some problems that arise from the...
Exploitation ofinstruction-levelparallelism is an ejfective mechanism for improving the performance of modern super-scalar/VLIW processors. Various software techniques can be appl...
It is well known how challenging is the task of coding complex agents for virtual environments. This difficulty in developing and maintaining complex agents has been plaguing com...
Embedded systems often have severe power and energy constraints. Dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) is a mechanism by which energy consumption may be reduced. In this paper, we impleme...
In addition to an untuned performance, inefficient resource management in hinders any attempt to offer Quality of Service in scavenging grids. In this case, Best-Effort mechanisms...
