Centralized Cost Efficiency DEA Models

Cost efficiency measures the cost of resource by output production. While conventional cost efficiency models set targets separately for each DMU, There are cases where the Central decision making is seeking the above targets, and at the same tries to obtain the target of Min cos

Virtualization Implementation Model for Cost Effective & Efficient Data Centers

Data centers form a key part of the infrastructure upon which a variety of information technology services are built. They provide the capabilities of centralized repository for storage, management, networking and dissemination of data. With the rapid increase in the capacity and

Low-cost fault tolerance in evolvable multiprocessor systems: a graceful degradation approach

The evolvable multiprocessor (EvoMP), as a novel multiprocessor system-on-chip (MPSoC) machine with evolvable task decomposition and scheduling, claims a major feature of low-cost and efficient fault tolerance. Non-centralized control and adaptive distribution of the program amon

Techniques and tools for measuring energy efficiency of scientific software applications

The scale of scientific High Performance Computing (HPC) and High Throughput Computing (HTC) has increased significantly in recent years, and is becoming sensitive to total energy use and cost. Energy-efficiency has thus become an important concern in scientific fields such as Hi

Power-Efficient Adaptable Wireless Sensor Networks

Wireless sensor networks represent a new data collection paradigm in which adaptability plays an important role. Typical sensor network scenarios involve scattering a large number of wireless nodes from an aircraft across an area of interest. The nodes then form a network through
