We propose a new approach for I/O scheduling that performs on-line simulation of the underlying disk. When simulation is integrated within a system, three key challenges must be a...

This work considers the problem of minimizing the power consumption for real-time scheduling on processors with discrete operating modes. We provide a model for determining the ex...
We present black-box techniques for learning how to interleave the execution of multiple heuristics in order to improve average-case performance. In our model, a user is given a s...

Achieving high performance under a peak temperature limit is a first-order concern for VLSI designers. This paper presents a new model of a thermally-managed system, where a stoch...
Stochastic Flow Models (SFMs) are stochastic ystems that abstract the dynamics of complex discrete event systems involving the control of sharable resources. SFMs have been used to...
