PhD Dissertation

I finally finished up the dissertation amendments my committee asked for, and I’ve submitted the work to the University of Virginia’s library system:

A Data and Contention Aware Approach to Dynamic Scheduling for Heterogeneous Processors

Any remaining typos in the work are actually encrypted communications to the people listed in my acknowledgments section.

I’d like to thank the members of my committee (Kim Hazelwood, Kevin Skadron, Marty Humphrey, Ben Calhoun, and Norm Rubin) for their help in making the dissertation a reality, and for their criticism, suggestions, and commentary.  In particular, my advisor, Kim Hazelwood spent many hours reviewing my work and giving me tremendously good feedback and guidance over the years, and I am immensely grateful to her for the time and effort she spent mentoring me during my time at UVA.  Thanks, Kim!
