— The DECOS architecture aims at combining the advantages of federated and integrated systems. The DECOS architecture divides the overall system into a set of nearly-independent ...
General-purpose operating systems are ill-equipped to meet the quality of service (QoS) requirements of complex real-time applications. Consequently, many classes of realtime appl...
Recent research in embedded computing indicates that packing multiple processor cores on the same die is an effective way of utilizing the ever-increasing number of transistors. T...
New architectures have recently been proposed and deployed to support end-to-end advance reservation of network resources. These architectures rely on the use a centralized schedul...
Executing long-running parallel applications in Opportunistic Grid environments composed of heterogeneous, shared user workstations, is a daunting task. Machines may fail, become ...
