On the relationship between file sizes, transport protocols, and self-similar network traffic
Recent measurements of local-area and wide-area traffic have shown that network traffic exhibits variability at a wide range of scales. In this paper, we examine a mechanism that ...

Distributed Filaments: Efficient Fine-Grain Parallelism on a Cluster of Workstations
A fine-grain parallel program is one in which processes are typically small, ranging from a few to a few hundred instructions. Fine-grain parallelism arises naturally in many situ...
