If applications were able to detect a user's expertise, then software could automatically adapt to better match expertise. Detecting expertise is difficult because a user...
Understanding the relationship between queueing delays and link utilization for general traffic conditions is an important open problem in networking research. Difficulties in unde...
Fault-tolerance techniques based on checkpointing and message logging have been increasingly used in real-world applications to reduce service down-time. Most industrial applicati...
Abstract. We study online scheduling to minimize flow time plus energy usage in the dynamic speed scaling model. We devise new speed scaling functions that depend on the number of ...
