Clusters and distributed systems offer fault tolerance and high performance through load sharing, and are thus attractive in real-time applications. When all computers are up and ...
This paper proposes a dynamic scheduler that supports the coexistence of guaranteed and non-guaranteed bandwidth servers to efficiently handle soft-tasks’ overloads by making a...
This paper addresses the problem of scheduling parallel tasks, represented by a direct acyclic graph (DAG) on heterogeneous clusters. Parallel tasks, also called malleable tasks, ...

We propose a novel work partitioning technique, Image Layer Decomposition (ILD), designed specifically to support distributed real-time rendering on commodity clusters. ILD has s...
This paper proposes a comprehensive modeling architecture for workloads on parallel computers using Markov chains in combination with state dependent empirical distribution functi...
