The resource availability in Grids is generally unpredictable due to the autonomous and shared nature of the Grid resources and stochastic nature of the workload resulting in a be...
Process variability has a detrimental impact on the performance of memories and other system components, which can lead to parametric yield loss at the system level due to timing ...

Because changes to the database (DB) and workload occur during a DB system's lifetime, the physical DB design must evolve to sustain good performance. These changes are carri...
The study of Joint Source-Channel Coding (JSCC) systems faces one major challenge in obtaining an analytical expression for the function that links end-to-end distortion with chann...
During the past ten years, a large number of quality models have been proposed in the literature. In general, the goal of these models is to predict a quality factor starting from...
