Predictable network computing still involves a number of open questions. One such question is providing a controlled amount of CPU time to distributed processes. Mechanisms to cont...
The Amoeba group communication system has two unique aspects: (1) it uses a sequencer-based protocol with negative acknowledgements for achieving a total order on all group messag...
Commodity operating systems achieve good performance by running device drivers in-kernel. Unfortunately, this architecture offers poor fault isolation. This paper introduces micro...

The high performance of the conventional spatio-temporal image noise reduction filers comes at the cost of high computationally intensity. In this paper, a motion adaptive spatio-...
Abstract. While standard processors achieve supercomputer performance, a performance gap exists between the interconnect of MPP's and COTS. Standard solutions like Ethernet ca...
