Microprocessor design has recently encountered many constraints such as power, energy,
reliability, and temperature. Among these challenging issues, temperature-related issues …

Thermal-aware scheduling of parallel jobs is becoming an increasingly critical issue in
software design for computing platforms ranging from embedded systems to large servers …

Elevated temperatures limit the peak performance of systems because of frequent
interventions by thermal throttling. Non-uniform thermal states across system nodes also …

In this work we present an approach for markerless motion capture (MoCap) of articulated
objects, which are recorded with multiple unsynchronized moving cameras. Instead of using …

Execution time is no longer the only metric by which computational systems are judged. In
fact, explicitly sacrificing raw performance in exchange for energy savings is becoming a …

This paper proposes a multi-objective evolutionary algorithm (MOEA)-based task scheduling
approach for determining Pareto optimal solutions with simultaneous optimization of …

Heterogeneous multiprocessor systems-on-chip (MPSoCs) powering mobile platforms
integrate multiple asymmetric CPU cores, a GPU, and many specialized processors. When …

Abstract Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) systems offer on demand virtual infrastructures so
reliably and flexibly that users expect a high service level. Therefore, even with regards to …

Effective management of ICT (information and communications technology) and cooling is
critical in modern data centres for high energy efficiency. This survey paper gives an …

Data centers now play an important role in modern IT infrastructures. Related research
shows that the energy consumption for data center cooling systems has recently increased …
