There exist many application classes for which the users have significant flexibility in the quality of output they desire. At the same time, there are other constraints, such a...
Due to cost, time, and flexibility constraints, simulators are often used to explore the design space when developing a new processor architecture, as well as when evaluating the ...
Abstract--This work studies the near-optimality versus the complexity of distributed configuration management for wireless networks. We first develop a global probabilistic graphic...
In this paper, we develop a new language construct to address one of the pitfalls of parallel programming: precise handling of events across parallel components. The construct, te...

Failure detectors are fundamental building blocks in distributed systems. Multi-node failure detectors, where the detector is tasked with monitoring N other nodes, play a critical...
