Efficiently managing storage is important for virtualized computing environments. Its importance is magnified by developments such as cloud computing which consolidate many thousa...
Many natural problems in computer science concern structures like graphs where elements are not inherently ordered. In contrast, Turing machines and other common models of computa...
We describe a simple on-line heuristic for scheduling job-shops. We assume there is a fixed set of routes for the jobs, and many jobs, say N, on each route. The heuristic uses saf...
We have developed a methodology for predicting the performance of parallel algorithms on real parallel machines. The methodology consists of two steps. First, we characterize a mac...
3G cellular data networks have recently witnessed explosive growth. In this work, we focus on UMTS, one of the most popular 3G mobile communication technologies. Our work is the f...
