Modern processors include features such as deep pipelining, multilevel cache hierarchy, branch predictors, out of order execution engine, and advanced floating point and multimedi...
This paper presents flit-reservation flow control, in which control flits traverse the network in advance of data flits, reserving buffers and channel bandwidth. Flit-reservation ...
The control system of many complex mechatronic products requires for each task the Worst Case Execution Time (WCET), which is needed for the scheduler's admission tests and su...
This paper studies the streaming of packetized media from multiple servers to a client over a lossy network. In particular, we propose a client-driven rate-distortion optimal pack...
Networks of Workstations (NOW) have become important and cost-effective parallel platforms for scientific computations. In practice, a NOW system is heterogeneous and non-dedicat...
