Approximation-Aware Computation for Graceful QoS Degradation in Modern Multiprocessor Operating Systems
Abstract: Modern multiprocessor operating systems face unprecedented challenges in maintaining Quality of Service (QoS) guarantees under dynamic workload conditions and resource constraints. Traditional approaches to resource management often result in abrupt service degradation or complete task failure when system resources become scarce. This study presents a comprehensive framework for approximation-aware computation that enables graceful QoS degradation in multiprocessor environments. We explore the integration of approximate computing paradigms with operating system schedulers, …

Designing Self-Optimizing Operating Systems: Information-Theoretic Approaches to Thread Scheduler Implementation
Abstract: Thread Level Scheduling (TLS) in multi-core and many-core processor environments represents a critical frontier in next-generation operating system design. As computing systems grow increasingly heterogeneous and concurrent, traditional scheduling strategies often rely on heuristics or localized resource metrics, frequently overlooking the deeper, quantifiable relationships and uncertainties inherent in complex concurrent workloads. This study explores the application of information-theoretic approaches, specifically entropy-based task allocation, mutual information-driven dependency analysis, and channel capacity-inspired …
