The problem of task assignment in heterogeneous computing systems has been studied for many years with many variations. We have developed a new hybrid approximation algorithm. The...
High-performance computing clusters running longlived tasks currently cannot have kernel software updates applied to them without causing system downtime. These clusters miss oppo...
When executing soft real-time tasks in a shared processor, it is important to properly allocate the computational resources such that the quality of service requirements of each t...
