A radically new approach to statistical modelling, which combines mathematical techniques
of Bayesian statistics with the philosophy of the theory of competitive on‐line algorithms, has …

This tutorial surveys design methods for energy-efficient system-level design. We consider
electronic sytems consisting of a hardware platform and software layers. We consider the …

Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) represent complex distributed systems that comprise
wireless mobile nodes that can freely and dynamically self-organize into arbitrary and …

Dynamic power management (DPM) is a design methodology for dynamically reconfiguring
systems to provide the requested services and performance levels with a minimum number …

We generalize the recent relative loss bounds for on-line algorithms where the additional
loss of the algorithm on the whole sequence of examples over the loss of the best expert is …

This paper evaluates five policies for cluster-wide power management in server farms. The
policies employ various combinations of dynamic voltage scaling and node vary-on/vary-off …

In this paper we address power conservation for clusters of workstations or PCs, such as
those that support a large number of research/teaching organizations and most Internet …

Next generation hand-held devices must provide seamless connectivity while obeying
stringent power and size constrains. In this paper we examine this issue from the point of …

A relative newcomer to the field of wireless communications, ad hoc networking is growing
quickly, both in its importance and its applications. With rapid advances in hardware …

Energy consumption has recently been widely recognized as a major challenge of computer
systems design. This paper explores how to support energy as a first-class operating system …
