Most future large-scale sensor networks are expected to follow a two-tier architecture which consists of resource-rich master nodes at the upper tier and resource-poor sensor node...
Modern computer systems have been built around the assumption that persistent storage is accessed via a slow, block-based interface. However, new byte-addressable, persistent memo...

The web browser is a CPU-intensive program. Especially on mobile devices, webpages load too slowly, expending significant time in processing a document’s appearance. Due to powe...
Scaling of CMOS feature size has long been a source of dramatic performance gains. However, the reduction in voltage levels has not been able to match this rate of scaling, leadin...
