Since the advent of electronic computing, the processors’ clock speed has risen tremendously. Now that energy efficiency requirements have stopped that trend, the number of proc...
Traditional techniques for a distributed web server design rely on manipulation of central resources, such as routers or DNS services, to distribute requests designated for a sing...
This paper presents a brief overview of a framework for the interactive steering of distributed applications that addresses three key issues: (1) Definition of Interaction Object...
In the dynamic load balancing problem, we seek to keep the job load roughly evenly distributed among the processors of a given network. The arrival and departure of jobs is modeled...
Many applications rely heavily on large amounts of data in the distributed storages collected over time or produced by large scale scientific experiments or simulations. The key co...
