There is an increasing demand for locality-preserving distribution of complex data structures in peer-to-peer systems. Current systems either do not preserve object locality or su...
In this paper, we present a heuristic algorithm that improves the performance of static task scheduling. Our algorithm is based on the list-scheduling mechanism. For the listing p...
This paper describes a simulation tool for the analysis of complex jobs described in the form of task graphs. The simulation procedure relies on the PN-based topological represent...
Capacity Planning has been a discipline practiced by IT since before the invention of the mainframe. It encompasses different measurement, analysis, modeling and reporting techniq...
Since the advent of electronic computing, the processors’ clock speed has risen tremendously. Now that energy efficiency requirements have stopped that trend, the number of proc...
