—Mission-driven sensor networks usually have special lifetime requirements. However, the density of the sensors may not be large enough to satisfy the coverage requirement while ...
This paper studies the QoS-aware replica placement problem. Although there has been much work on replica placement problem, most of them concerns average system performance and ign...
It is commonly agreed that scheduling mechanisms in general purpose operating systems do not provide adequate support for modern interactive applications, notably multimedia appli...
—We consider a distributed shuffling algorithm for sharing data in a distributed network. Nodes executing the algorithm periodically contact each other and exchange data. The be...
As on-chip integration matures, single-chip system designers must not only be concerned with component-level issues such as performance and power, but also with onchip system-leve...
