This paper considers the problem of packet-mode scheduling of input queuedswitches. Packets have variable lengths, and are divided into cells of unit length. Each packet arrives t...
Accurate performance predictions are difficult to achieve for parallel applications executing on production distributed systems. Conventional point-valued performance parameters a...
We give a graph decomposition technique that creates entirely independent subproblems for graph problems such as coloring and dominating sets that can be solved without synchroniz...
