Under device failures and maintenance activities, network resources reduce and congestion may arise inside networks. As a result, users experience degraded performance on packet d...
In large-scale clusters and computational grids, component failures become norms instead of exceptions. Failure occurrence as well as its impact on system performance and operatio...
Architects use cycle-by-cycle simulation to evaluate design choices and understand tradeoffs and interactions among design parameters. Efficiently exploring exponential-size desig...

Abstract. Clusters have become the de facto platform to scale J2EE application servers. Each tier of the server uses group communication to maintain consistency between replicated ...
This paper presents a new optimization metaheuristic called ID Walk (Intensification/Diversification Walk) that offers advantages for combining simplicity with effectiveness. In ad...
