These signals are generated at least partially on the job, creating incentives for agents to choose high pro le and highly visible tasks. When agents have private information about the profitability of di erent tasks, rms may wish to prevent over-investment in those that entail signaling, b...
متن کاملEfficient Management of System Idleness
Various activities that intend to enhance performance, reliability, and availability of systems are scheduled with low priority and served during system idle times. Under such conditions, idleness becomes a valuable “resource” that needs to be efficiently managed. A common approach in system design is to be non-work-conserving by “idle waiting”, i.e., delay scheduling of background jobs to avoi...
متن کاملIdleness is Not Sloth
spend much of their time idle, and various schemes have been proposed to use this idle time productively. We have used this approach to improve overall performance in storage systems. The most common approach is to off-load activity from busy periods to less-busy ones in order to improve system responsiveness. In addition, speculative work can be performed in idle periods in the hope that it wi...
متن کاملPower Capping Via Forced Idleness
We introduce a novel power capping technique, IdleCap, that achieves higher effective server frequency for a given power constraint than existing techniques. IdleCap works by repeatedly alternating between the highest performance state and a low-power idle state, maintaining a fixed average power budget, while significantly increasing the average processor frequency. In experiments conducted on...
متن کاملRewarding Results or Rewarding Efforts?
Abstract The main objective of teaching is to make sure that the students learn the required material. From this viewpoint, it seems reasonable to reward students when they learn this material. In other words, it seems reasonable to assign the student’s rewards (such as grades) based on their level of knowledge. However, experiments show that, contrary to this seemingly intuitive conclusion, we...
