In this paper, we define and study a new class of capacity planning models called MAP queueing networks. MAP queueing networks provide the first analytical methodology to describe ...
—Collaborative mechanisms between services are a crucial aspect in the recent development of pervasive computing systems based on the paradigm of service-oriented architecture. C...
As VLSI technology enters the nanoscale regime, interconnect delay has become the bottleneck of the circuit timing. As one of the most powerful techniques for interconnect optimiz...
We introduce a new, powerful class of text proximity queries: find an instance of a given "answer type" (person, place, distance) near "selector" tokens matchi...
Extracting performance from many-core architectures requires software engineers to create multi-threaded applications, which significantly complicates the already daunting task of...
