Performance non-determinism in computer systems complicates evaluation, use, and even development of these systems. In performance evaluation via benchmarking and simulation, nond...
Network devices can filter traffic in order to protect end-user computers against network worms and other threats. Since these devices have very limited memories and cannot deploy ...
The main memory management has been a critical issue to provide high performance in web cluster systems. To overcome the speed gap between processors and disks, many prefetch sche...
Recent years have witnessed the emergence of shared sensor networks as integrated infrastructure for multiple applications. It is important to allocate multiple applications in a ...
