Abstract. We propose and discuss foundations for programmable overlay networks and overlay computing systems. Such overlays are built over a large number of distributed computation...
Distributed applications or workflows need to access and use compute, storage and network resources simultaneously or chronologically coordinated respectively. Examples are distri...
Power consumption is a troublesome design constraint for emergent systems such as IBM’s BlueGene /L. If current trends continue, future petaflop systems will require 100 megawat...
Abstract— Content replication and distribution is an effective technology to reduce the response time for web accesses and has been proven quite popular among large Internet cont...
Abstract—While measures such as raw compute performance and system capacity continue to be important factors for evaluating cluster performance, such issues as system reliability...
