—In this work we study the portfolio problem which is to find a good combination of multiple heuristics to solve given instances on parallel resources in minimum time. The resou...
Abstract—Customised processor performance generally increases as additional custom instructions are added. However, performance is not the only metric that modern systems must ta...
Communication delay is a key source of uncertainty in distributed systems. Existing approaches to reduce this uncertainty focus on maintaining sufficient surplus bandwidth; appli...
—Multi-channel operation in wireless systems has been proposed to increase user throughput and reduce transmission delays. However, multi-channel operation requires adequate reso...
