An important part of a distributed system design is the workload sharing among the processors. This includes partitioningthe arriving jobs into tasks that can be executed in paral...
: In a high performance microprocessor such as Digital's 300MHz Alpha 21164, the distribution of a high quality clock signal to all regions of the device is achieved using a c...
Conventional implementations of communication middleware (such as CORBA and traditional RPC toolkits) incur considerable overhead when used for performance-sensitive applications ...
Generational garbage collectors are able to achieve very small pause times by concentrating on the youngest (most recently allocated) objects when collecting, since objects have b...
