Selection of resources for execution of scientific workflows in data grids becomes challenging with the exponential growth of files as a result of the distribution of scientific e...
We consider a call center with two classes of impatient customers: premium and regular classes. Modeling our call center as a multiclass GI/GI/s + M queue, we focus on developing ...
A modular synthesis flow is essential for a scalable and hierarchical design methodology. This paper considers a particular modular flow where each module has interface methods an...
In this paper, we describe two new algorithms for datapath scheduling which aim at energy reduction while maintaining performance. The proposed algorithms, time constrained and re...
