In deep submicron circuits, elevation in temperatures has brought new challenges in reliability, timing, performance, cooling costs and leakage power. Conventional thermal managem...
Component-based operating systems enable embedded systems to adapt system policies, mechanisms, and abstractions to the specific workloads and contexts of each system. The scope o...
In this paper, we propose Runahead Threads (RaT) as a valuable solution for both reducing resource contention and exploiting memory-level parallelism in Simultaneous Multithreaded...
In a computational grid environment, a common practice is try to allocate an entire parallel job onto a single participating site. Sometimes a parallel job, upon its submission, ca...
This report describes a necessary and sufficient test for the schedulability of a set of sporadic harddeadline tasks on a multiprocessor platform, using any of a variety of schedu...
