Unpredictability in COTS-based systems often manifests as occasional instances of uncontrollably-high response times. A particular category of COTS systems, fault-tolerant (FT) mid...
As new processor and memory architectures advance, clusters start to be built from larger SMP systems, which makes MPI intra-node communication a critical issue in high performanc...
Virtual caches are employed as L1 caches of both high performance and embedded processors to meet their short latency requirements. However, they also introduce the synonym proble...
Packet processing systems maintain high throughput despite relatively high memory latencies by exploiting the coarse-grained parallelism available between packets. In particular, ...
In current CDMA2000 standard, a Packet Data Serving Node (PDSN) acts as an IP gateway to the Internet. Mobile Nodes (MN) connect to a PDSN using a Point-to-Point (PPP) session and...
