Finding an efficient configuration for cluster-based multi-tier Internet services is often a difficult task. Moreover, even a good configuration could become obsolete, depending o...
Indirection exists between the virtual objects that form the computer interface and the input devices through which the user interacts to manipulate these objects. This paper stud...
We consider a heterogeneous computing environment that consists of a collection of machines and task types. The machines vary in capabilities and different task types are better su...
