Most existing dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) schemes for multiple tasks assume an energy cost function (energy consumption versus execution time) that is independent of the task ch...
The objective of query optimizers is to select a good execution plan for a given query. In a distributed system, it is crucial for a query optimizer to have effective remote cost e...
We study a model of path-vector routing in which nodes’ routing policies are based on subjective cost assessments of alternative routes. The routes are constrained by the requir...
