Creating replicas of frequently accessed objects across a read-intensive network can result in large bandwidth savings which, in turn, can lead to reduction in user response time....
The Replica Exchange method is a popular approach for studying the folding thermodynamics of small to modest size proteins in explicit solvent, since it is easily parallelized. Ho...

We study stochastic models to mitigate the risk of poor Quality-of-Service (QoS) in computational markets. Consumers who purchase services expect both price and performance guaran...
THIS PAPER IS ELIGIBLE FOR THE STUDENT PAPER AWARD. We consider distributed computation of functions of distributed data in random planar networks with noisy wireless links. We pre...
Abstract—Resource management is a key challenge that service providers must adequately face in order to ensure their profitability. This paper describes a proof-of-concept frame...
