      Heterogeneous- and NUMA-aware scheduling for many-core architectures 

      Petrides, P.; Trancoso, Pedro (Association for Computing Machinery, Inc, 2017)
      As the number of cores increases in a single chip processor, several challenges arise: wire delays, contention for out-ofchip accesses, and core heterogeneity. In order to address these issues and the applications demands, ...
