The emerging service grids bring together various distributed services to a ‘market’ for clients to request and enable the integration of services across distributed, heteroge...
The ability to quickly predict the throughput of a TCP transfer between a client and a server, or between peers, has wide application in scientific computing and commercial compu...
In contrast to a large body of theoretical work on computer systems, distributed systems are not idealised constructions, unconstrained by physical world limitations. They must be...
In this paper, we propose a novel learning method, called Jensen-Shannon Boosting (JSBoost) and demonstrate its application to object recognition. JSBoost incorporates Jensen-Shan...
Detection and diagnosis of faults in a large-scale distributed system is a formidable task. Interest in monitoring and using traces of user requests for fault detection has been o...
