This paper addresses the problem of reducing the hysteresis found in the actuation of most smart materials. They are divided in two groups: systems with no saturation (e.g. piezoe...
Predicting the running time of a parallel program is useful for determining the optimal values for the parameters of the implementation and the optimal mapping of data on processo...
In this paper we extend a previously introduced method for optimizing the arbitration policy employed by ServerNet routers and we evaluate the method's effect on scalability....
