Existing task allocation algorithms generally do not consider the effects of task interaction, such as interference, but instead assume that tasks are independent. That assumptio...
Utility functions can be used to represent the value users attach to job completion as a function of turnaround time. Most previous scheduling research used simple synthetic repre...
Multimedia applications today constitute a significant fraction of the workload running on portable devices such as mobile phones, PDAs and MP3 players. However, the processors i...
