Average-Case Analysis of Greedy Packet Scheduling
We study the average number of delays suffered by packets routed using greedy (work conserving) scheduling policies. We obtain tight bounds on the worst-case average number of del...

A Comparison of Asymptotically Scalable Superscalar Processors
The poor scalability of existing superscalar processors has been of great concern to the computer engineering community. In particular, the critical-path lengths of many components...

Diffusion Schemes for Load Balancing on Heterogeneous Networks
Several different diffusion schemes have previously been developed for load balancing on homogeneous processor networks. We generalize existing schemes, in order to deal with heter...

Bulk Synchronous Parallel Algorithms for the External Memory Model
Abstract. Blockwise access to data is a central theme in the design of efficient external memory (EM) algorithms. A second important issue, when more than one disk is present, is f...

Efficient On-Line Frequency Allocation and Call Control in Cellular Networks
Abstract. In this paper we consider communication issues arising in cellular (mobile) networks that utilize frequency division multiplexing (FDM) technology. In such networks, many...

A Simple and Efficient Parallel Disk Mergesort
External sorting--the process of sorting a file that is too large to fit into the computer's internal memory and must be stored externally on disks--is a fundamental subroutin...
