— In this paper a new approach to optimize nuclear power plant designs based on global risk reduction are described. In design the focus is on as components quality as redundancy...
The capacity scaling property specifies the changes in network throughput when network size increases and serves as an essential performance evaluation metric for large-scale wir...
Global variable promotion, i.e. allocating unaliased globals to registers, can significantly reduce the number of memory operations. This results in reduced cache activity and less...
Hospital Patient Scheduling is an inherently distributed problem because of the way real hospitals are organized. As medical procedures have become more complex, and their associat...
— This paper presents the Fixed Priority until Zero Laxity (FPZL) scheduling algorithm for multiprocessor realtime systems. FPZL is similar to global fixed priority preemptive sc...
