We propose, and justify, an economic theory to guide memory system design, operation, and analysis. Our theory treats memory random-access latency, and its cost per installed mega...
With the advent of system-on-a-chip design, many application specific integrated circuits (ASICs) now require multiple design clocks that operate asynchronously to each other. This...
The dynamics of peer participation, or churn, are an inherent property of Peer-to-Peer (P2P) systems and critical for design and evaluation. Accurately characterizing churn requir...
In a public cloud, bandwidth is traditionally priced in a pay-asyou-go model. Reflecting the recent trend of augmenting cloud computing with bandwidth guarantees, we consider a n...
We define some interesting incentive issues that arise in the management of virtual infrastructures. We demonstrate that participants’ decisions about the quantities of infrast...
