Flexible resource management and scheduling policies require detailed system-state information. Traditional, monolithic operating systems with a centralized kernel derive the requ...
Software-based thread-level parallelization has been widely studied for exploiting data parallelism in purely computational loops to improve program performance on multiprocessors...
A number of solutions have been proposed for the problem of mutual exclusion in distributed systems. Some of these approaches have since been extended to a prioritized environment...
