In this paper, we consider an M/M/k queueing system with setup costs. Servers are turned off when there is no work to do, but turning on an off server incurs a setup cost. The s...
We develop two simple interval-based models for dynamic superscalar processors. These models allow us to: i) predict with great accuracy performance and power consumption under va...
Traditional architecture design approaches hide hardware uncertainties from the software stack through overdesign, which is often expensive in terms of power consumption. The recen...
Body-area sensor network or BAN-based health monitoring is increasingly becoming a popular alternative to traditional wired bio-monitoring techniques. However, most biomonitoring ...

In this paper we consider server farms with a setup cost. This model is common in manufacturing systems and data centers, where there is a cost to turn servers on. Setup costs alw...
