We introduce a shared memory software prototype system for executing programs with nested parallelism on a network of workstations. This programming model exhibits a very convenie...
Comprehensive exploration of the design space parameters at the system-level is a crucial task to evaluate architectural tradeoffs accounting for both energy and performance const...

In preemptive real-time systems, scheduling analyses need—in addition to the worst-case execution time—the context-switch cost. In case of preemption, the preempted and the pr...
Abstract There are increasing demands on portable communication devices to run multimedia applications. ISO (an International Organization for Standardization) standard MPEG-4 is a...
