✦ Synopsis

The source of the owner workload model in Sections 3.2.3 and 2.1 was not properly attributed. The discrete time model and model description are directly borrowed from Leutenegger and Sun [1]. A minor modification to the model of Leutenegger and Sun was made to incorporate the processing power and owner workload heterogeneity. Specifically, P becomes P i and O becomes O i , where the subscript i denotes a specific processor, so that the heterogeneity of processor powers and nonuniform owner workloads is represented in the extended model. The authors apologize for failing to give proper attribution of the original work. REFERENCE 1. Leutenegger, S.
