In real world development environments where deadlines are fixed, a designer must craft a process that works with the team and within the constraints of a project. The traditional...
Agents often have preference models that are more complicated than minimizing the expected execution cost. In this paper, we study how they should act in the presence of uncertaint...
We have developed a set of performance prediction tools which help to estimate the achievable speedups from parallelizing a sequential simulation. The tools focus on two important...
One role for workload generation is as a means for understanding how servers and networks respond to variation in load. This enables management and capacity planning based on curr...
We present a method for providing response-time guarantees in Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) networks. The method is based on traditional real-time CPU Response-Time Analysis (R...
