Real-time garbage collection is essential if object-oriented languages (in particular, Java) are to become predictable enough for real-time embedded systems. Although techniques f...
Power-aware processors operate in various power modes to reduce energy consumption with a corresponding decrease in peak processor throughput. Recent work has shown power-aware cl...
We analyze the effect of thermal constraints on the performance and power of multi-core processors. We propose system-level power and thermal models, and derive expressions for (a...
