We propose an optimization algorithm to execute a previously unlearned task-oriented command in an intelligent machine. We show that a well-defined, physically bounded, task-orien...
Recent work on BitTorrent swarms has demonstrated that a bandwidth bottleneck at the seed can lead to the underutilization of the aggregate swarm capacity. Bandwidth underutilizat...
- Real-time scheduling on processors that support dynamic voltage and frequency scaling is analyzed. The Slacked Earliest Deadling First (SEDF) algorithm is proposed and it is show...
We study the complexity of expressing the greatest common divisor of n positive numbers as a linear combination of the numbers. We prove the NP-completeness of finding an optimal s...
This paper explores how process pipeline scheduling may become a viable strategy for executing workflows. It first details a workflow optimization and execution algorithm that redu...
