Abstract. Software systems obey the 80/20 rule: aggressively optimizing a vital few execution paths yields large speedups. However, finding the vital few paths can be difficult, e...
The current trend in HPC hardware is towards clusters of shared-memory (SMP) compute nodes. For applications developers the major question is how best to program these SMP cluster...
We propose an admission control policy for wireless multimedia networks that is based on the well known threshold-based guard channel method. The new scheme deals with two differen...
