From personal software to advanced systems, caching mechanisms have steadfastly been a ubiquitous means for reducing workloads. It is no surprise, then, that under the grid and clu...
Modern multi-core architectures have become popular because of the limitations of deep pipelines and heating and power concerns. Some of these multi-core architectures such as the...
This paper addresses the problem of stochastic task execution time estimation agnostic to the process distributions. The proposed method is orthogonal to the application structure ...
Abstract. We present a new access control mechanism for P2P networks with distributed enforcement, called P2P Access Control System (PACS). PACS enforces powerful access control mo...
In the single rent-to-buy decision problem, without a priori knowledge of the amount of time a resource will be used we need to decide when to buy the resource, given that we can ...
