Abstract— A novel multichannel schedule-based Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol for ad-hoc networks, named collision-avoidance transmission scheduling (CATS) is introduced. CA...
Power-related issues have become important considerations in current generation microprocessor design. One of these issues is that of elevated on-chip temperatures. This has an ad...
In this paper, we follow a new path to arrive at the idea of a COMA — a Cache Only Memory Architecture. We show how the evolution of another architecture (ADARC) leads quite nat...
Optimizing the pump-scheduling is an interesting proposal to achieve cost reductions in water distribution pumping stations. As systems grow, pump-scheduling becomes a very diffic...
We study the average number of delays suffered by packets routed using greedy (work conserving) scheduling policies. We obtain tight bounds on the worst-case average number of del...
