As the processor-memory performance gap continues to grow, so does the need for effective tools and metrics to guide the design of efficient memory hierarchies to bridge that gap....
Broadcasting protocols can improve the efficiency of video on demand services by reducing the bandwidth required to transmit videos that are simultaneously watched by many viewers...
This paper describes the design and performance of IDES, a Java-based distributed simulation engine being developed at Sandia National Laboratories. The feasability of using Java ...

In this work, we propose a method for using simulation to analyze the robustness of multiparty (multicastbased) protocols in a systematic fashion. We call our method Systematic Te...
Self-managing systems able to dynamically re-configure with respect to time-varying workload mixes and changing system resource availability are of growing importance in heterogen...
