Distributed applications require distributed techniques for efficient resource allocation. These techniques need to take into account the heterogeneity and potential unreliability...
Cloud computing has emerged as a preferred platform for deploying scalable web-applications. With the growing scale of these applications and the data associated with them, scalab...
Traditional concurrency control techniques for database systems (transaction management based on locking protocols) have been successful in many multiuser settings, but these tech...
The paper deals with the numerical treatment of optimal control problems with bounded distributed controls and elliptic state equations by a wider class of barrier-penalty methods...
