Autonomous Computing Systems
This work discusses <i>autonomous computing systems</i>, as implemented in hardware, and the properties required for such systems to function. Particular attention is placed on shifting the associated complexity into the systems themselves, and making them responsible for their own resources and …

Pervasive handheld computing systems
… thesis has coined the term pervasive handheld computing systems to refer to this type of mobile device. Portable computers are faced with a number of constraints in trying to meet these objectives. They are physically constrained by their size, their computational power, their memory resources, …

Reliable spin-based computing systems
… random variable. Deterministic von Neumann style computing requires them to operate at worst case delay (and low error-rate), thereby completely offsetting the energy-delay benefits of spin devices and making them non-competitive against CMOS. In this thesis, we show that, by exploiting inherent …

MULTIPARTY COLLABORATION IN EDGE COMPUTING SYSTEMS
… appliances to sophisticated safety-critical systems such as nuclear plants and medical implants. Complex IoT systems supporting multiple services, particularly edge computing systems, invariably consist of multiple subsystems designed, installed, or managed by a different vendor, …

Resource management for Edge computing systems
Current computing techniques using the Cloud as a centralised server will become untenable as billions of devices get connected to the Internet. This will lead to the degradation of the Quality-of-Service (QoS) of Cloud-hosted applications. Recently Edge computing is proposed as a potential …

A framework for evolving grid computing systems.
Grid computing was born in the 1990s, when researchers were looking for a way to share expensive computing resources and experiment equipment. Grid computing is becoming increasingly popular because it promotes the sharing of distributed resources that may be heterogeneous in nature, and it enables …

Adaptive Scheduling in Heterogeneous Distributed Computing Systems
… scheduling for heterogeneous distributed systems. Given an unreliable, non-dedicated set of processing and communication resources, a scheduler is required to allocate tasks to processors. No information about the state of the system, which can vary over time, or the tasks to be processed, …

Resource-Constrained Embedded Control and Computing Systems
… resource constraints in embedded control systems and real-time computing systems. By dynamic feedback-based resource scheduling it is possible to achieve adaptability andincreased performance for these systems. A feedback scheduling strategy is presented, which uses feedback from plant …

Cross-layer scheduling in cloud computing systems
… leading to sub-optimal throughput for cloud computing platforms. In this thesis, we propose a cross-layer scheduling framework that bridges the application level scheduler with the routing level scheduler (SDN). We realize our framework in a batch-processing framework (Hadoop) and a …

Optimization and Regulation of Performance for Computing Systems
The current demands of computing applications, the advent of technological advances related to hardware and software, the contractual relationship between users and cloud service providers and current ecological demands, require the re\ufb01nement of performance regulation on computing systems. …

Modeling price and demand in cloud computing systems
… the behavior of pricing and demand within cloud computing systems. As cloud computing has become increasingly popular, research has been focused on finding a mechanism to optimize social welfare. Current schemes typically charge users at a fixed price per time unit. Theoretical research …

Disk I/O in High-Performance Computing Systems
… of high-performance computers and disk I/O systems. This divergence in performance signifies that the I/O system will become an increasing bottleneck in future computer systems. With such a bottleneck, a program's execution time on these systems could approach the associated file access time …

Neuromorphic computing systems : crystalline resistive random access memory
Neuromorphic computing is a promising approach for efficient electronics by shaping computer hardware like the human brain. At the core of neuromorphic architectures are artificial synapses, which store conductance states to weight collections of electrical spikes according to Kirchoff's laws and …
