This paper investigates scheduling loosely coupled task-bundles in highly heterogeneous distributed systems. Two allocation quality metrics are used in pay-per-service distributed ...
The Earliest Deadline First (EDF) scheduling algorithm is known to be suboptimal for meeting all deadlines under global scheduling on multiprocessor platforms. However, EDF is an a...
Supercomputers are prone to frequent faults that adversely affect their performance, reliability and functionality. System logs collected on these systems are a valuable resource o...
Abstract--Power density and heat density of multicore processor system are increasing exponentially with Moore's Law. High temperature on chip greatly affects its reliability,...
The queue data structure is fundamental and ubiquitous. Lockfree versions of the queue are well known. However, an important open question is whether practical wait-free queues ex...
