Power consumption of a processor depends on several factors. Dynamic Voltage and Frequency Scaling (DVFS) is a proven method for energy saving. In this paper, we propose Dynamic Cache Reconfiguration (DCR) using runtime observation of cache parameters to further improve the energy efficiency. Our work shows that merging Dynamic Voltage Scaling (DVS...

Two state-of-the-art languages being used in the field of integrated modeling and management of systems are OMG Systems Modeling Language (SysML) and Object-Process Methodology (OPM). SysML is based on UML 2, a de-facto standard in software engineering. OPM is chartered as ISO/PAS 19450 for system and process modeling. Aspects of these two diverse...

This paper examines the problem of the inability of common conceptual modeling frameworks to appeal to practicing designers and analysts. The claim is that these frameworks are inherently limited in their capacity to handle certain aspects of the system being modeled. A unified framework for integrated modeling and management is therefore needed. A...

Modeling processes are the activities of capturing and representing processes and control of their dynamic behavior. Desired features of the model include capture of relevant aspects of a real phenomenon, understandability, and completeness of static and dynamic specifications. This paper proposes a diagrammatic language for engineering process mod...
