We introduce the coupled placement problem for modern data centers spanning placement of application computation and data among available server and storage resources. While the t...
As the CMOS technology is scaled into the dimension of nanometer, the clock frequencies and die sizes of ICs are shown to be increasing steadily [5]. Today, global wires that requ...
The use of OVSF codes in WCDMA systems has offered opportunities to provide variable data rates to flexibly support applications with different bandwidth requirements. Two importan...
When monitoring spatial phenomena, which can often be modeled as Gaussian processes (GPs), choosing sensor locations is a fundamental task. There are several common strategies to ...
—Popular Internet services are hosted by multiple geographically distributed datacenters. The location of the datacenters has a direct impact on the services’ response times, c...
