Left unchecked, the fundamental drive to increase peak performance using tens of thousands of power hungry components will lead to intolerable operating costs and failure rates. H...
Embedded control systems with hard real-time constraints require that deadlines are met at all times or the system may malfunction with potentially catastrophic consequences. Sched...
The availability of inexpensive “off the shelf” machines increases the likelihood that parallel programs run on heterogeneous clusters of machines. These programs are increasi...
The decomposition of a software application into components and connectors at the design stage has been promoted as a way to describe and reason about complex software architecture...
Performance prediction methods for component-based software systems aim at supporting design decisions of software architects during early development stages. With the increased a...
