We have developed a set of performance prediction tools which help to estimate the achievable speedups from parallelizing a sequential simulation. The tools focus on two important...
Existing empirical studies of Internet structure and path properties indicate that the Internet is tree-like. This work quantifies the degree to which at least two important Inte...
This paper presents a new approach for analyzing the performance of grid scheduling algorithms for tasks with dependencies. Finding the optimal procedures for DAG scheduling in Gr...
Abstract--The high-order phase function (HPF) is a useful tool to estimate the instantaneous frequency rate (IFR) of a signal with a polynomial phase. In this paper, the asymptotic...
— Accurately estimating end-to-end performance in distributed systems is essential both for monitoring compliance with service-level agreements (SLAs) and for performance optimiz...
