This paper contributes to solve effectively stochastic resource allocation problems known to be NP-Complete. To address this complex resource management problem, a Qdecomposition...
Large scale distributed systems typically have interactions among different services that create an avenue for propagation of a failure from one service to another. The failures ...
Abstract. Defining persistence in terms of reachability is fundamental to achieving orthogonality of persistence. It is implicit to the principles of orthogonal persistence and is ...

The use of multi-core, multi-processor machines is opening new opportunities for software speculation, where program code is speculatively executed to improve performance at the a...
Knowing the program timing characteristics is fundamental to the successful design and execution of real-time systems. A critical timing measure is the worst-case execution time (...
