Utilizing Idle Workstations
The decreasing cost of personal workstations over recent years has led to their proliferation in computing environments. Studies have shown that personal workstations are under-utilized for long periods of time during regular working hours. This paper identiies this under-utilization as the idle-workstation problem. A taxonomy of computational models of systems that have attempted to solve the ...
متن کاملIdle Ants Have a Role
We model and analyze the distributed task allocation problem, which is solved by ant colonies on a daily basis. Ant colonies employ task allocation in which ants are moved from one task to the other in order to meet changing demands introduced by the environment, such as excess or shortage of food, dirtier or cleaner nest, etc. The different tasks are: nursing (overseeing the hatching of newbie...
متن کاملIdle Read After Write - IRAW
Despite a low occurrence rate, silent data corruption represents a growing concern for storage systems designers. Throughout the storage hierarchy, from the file system down to the disk drives, various solutions exist to avoid, detect, and correct silent data corruption. Undetected errors during the completion of WRITEs may cause silent data corruption. A portion of the WRITE errors may be dete...
متن کاملSpeculative Use of Idle Resources
Even a fully loaded computer system, where the bottleneck resource is constantly busy, often has some idle capacities available on other resources. This proposal argues for using these idle capacities speculatively, increasing system performance for correct predictions. In such a system, all resources will ideally be constantly loaded with either regular foreground tasks, or speculative idle-ti...
متن کاملSurvey on Idle Resources Utilization
As cited in papers on performance measurement and profiling [14], [15], computing power of desktop workstations is available, i.e. unused 50− 70% of the time – not only on weekends and during the night but also during busiest working hours. Since computing capacity steadily increases, these numbers are likely to grow. Usual resource request patterns, however are bursty, i.e. phases of multiple ...
