Abstract. The workshop on job scheduling strategies for parallel processing (JSSPP) studies the myriad aspects of managing resources on parallel and distributed computers. These st...
High power consumption and low energy efficiency have become significant impediments to future performance improvements in modern microprocessors. This paper contributes to the so...
We study how best to schedule scans of large data files, in the presence of many simultaneous requests to a common set of files. The objective is to maximize the overall rate of p...
Informed prefetching provides a simple mechanism for I/O-intensive, cache-ineffective applications to efficiently exploit highly-parallel I/O subsystems such as disk arrays. This ...
—The great diffusion of Mobile Web-enabled devices allows the implementation of novel personalization, location and adaptation services that will place unprecedented strains on t...
