We considered non-clairvoyant multiprocessor scheduling of jobs with arbitrary arrival times and changing execution characteristics. The problem has been studied extensively when ...
Large scale data analysis and mining activities, such as identifying interesting trends, making unusual patterns to stand out and verifying hypotheses, require sophisticated infor...
Consider a set of shared objects in a distributed network, where several copies of each object may exist at any given time. To ensure both fast access to the objects as well as e ...
Dynamic predication has been proposed to reduce the branch misprediction penalty due to hard-to-predict branch instructions. A recently proposed dynamic predication architecture, ...
Due to the increasing security threats on the Internet, new overlay network architectures have been proposed to secure privileged services. In these architectures, the application...
