Although Web prefetching is regarded as an effective method to improve client access performance, the associated overhead prevents it from being widely deployed. Specifically, a ...
It is possible to implement the parallel random access machine (PRAM) on a chip multiprocessor (CMP) efficiently with an emulated shared memory (ESM) architecture to gain easy par...
Although recent advances in theory indicate that burstiness in the service time process can be handled effectively by queueing models (e.g., MAP queueing networks [2]), there is a...
