We build an analytical model for an application utilizing master-slave paradigm. In the model, only three architecture parameters are used: latency, bandwidth and flop rate. Instea...
We consider a network of autonomous peers forming a logically global but physically distributed search engine, where every peer has its own local collection generated by independe...

In this paper, we present a Dynamic Load Balancing (DLB) policy for problems characterized by a highly irregular search tree, whereby no reliable workload prediction is available....
Computation off-loading, i.e., remote execution, has been shown to be effective for extending the computational power and battery life of resource-restricted devices, e.g., hand-h...
As energy consumption in high-performance systems has increased, thermal management has become a big challenge. Providing a cost-effective and detailed temperature sensing mechani...
