Asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) switches based on shared buffering are known to have better performance and buffer utilization than input or output queued switches. Shared buffer...
Background: It is well known that most of the binding free energy of protein interaction is contributed by a few key hot spot residues. These residues are crucial for understandin...
Object-oriented frameworks are a powerful reuse technique but they are also very complex and difficult to design. Framework’s design aims at separating the invariant aspects acr...
Thermal hot spots and temperature gradients on the die need to be minimized to manufacture reliable systems while meeting energy and performance constraints. In this work, we solve...
Abstract— Internet flash crowds (a.k.a. hot spots) are a phenomenon that result from a sudden, unpredicted increase in an on-line object’s popularity. Currently, there is no e...
Decreasing feature sizes and increasing package densities are making thermal issues extremely important in IC design. Uneven thermal maps and hot spots in ICs cause physical stres...
In the past, there have been several denial-of-service (DOS) attacks which exhaust some shared resource (e.g., physical memory, process table, file descriptors, TCP connections) ...

In multi-core processors there are several ways to pair a thread to a particular core. These load-balancing techniques result in a quite different power, performance and thermal b...
