Adapting to the network is the key to achieving high performance for communication-intensive applications, including scientific computing, data intensive computing, and multicast...
The crossbar fabric is widely used as the interconnect of high-performance packet switches due to its low cost and scalability. There are two main variants of the crossbar fabric:...
In uniform multiprocessor platforms, the various processors comprising the multiprocessor platform may have different computing capacities. The focus of this paper is the design o...
In this paper, we deal with the large-scale divisible load problem studied in [12]. We show how to reduce this problem to a classical preemptive scheduling problem on a single mac...

We study single machine scheduling problems, where processing times of the jobs are exponential functions of their start times. For increasing functions, we prove strong NP-hardnes...
