The proliferation of mobile computers and wireless networks requires the design of future distributed real-time applications to recognize and deal with the signi cant asymmetry be...
Let be a disk of radius R in the plane. A set F of closed unit disks contained in forms a maximal packing if the unit disks are pairwise disjoint and the set is maximal: i.e., i...
Abstract— Many of today’s data-intensive applications manipulate disk-resident data sets. As a result, their overall behavior is tightly coupled with their disk performance. Un...

Allowing higher-priority requests to preempt ongoing disk IOs is of particular benefit to delay-sensitive multimedia and real-time systems. In this paper we propose Semi-preempti...
