Cache memories have been extensively used to bridge the gap between high speed processors and relatively slower main memories. However, they are sources of predictability problems...
FPGAs are becoming more and more attractive for high precision scientific computations. One of the main problems in efficient resource utilization is the quadratically growing r...
Parallel sequence-search tools are rising in popularity among computational biologists. With the rapid growth of sequence databases, database segmentation is the trend of the futu...
— In autonomic provisioning, a resource manager allocates resources to an application, on-demand, e.g., during load spikes. Modelling-based approaches have proved very successful...
— Reinforcement Learning (RL) provides a promising new approach to systems performance management that differs radically from standard queuing-theoretic approaches making use of ...
