The lazy caching algorithm of Afek, Brown, and Merrit (1993) is a protocol that allows the use of local caches with delayed updates. It results in a memory model that is not atomi...
The security gateways today are required not only to block unauthorized accesses by authenticating packet headers, but also by inspecting connection states to defend against malic...
We address a hierarchical generalization of the well-known disk paging problem. In the hierarchical cooperative caching problem, a set of n machines residing in an ultrametric spa...

We introduce an expectation maximizationtype (EM) algorithm for maximum likelihood optimization of conditional densities. It is applicable to hidden variable models where the dist...
Abstract. Peer-to-peer (P2P) applications are composed of a distributed collection of peers that cooperate in order to perform some common task. Though P2P applications have attrac...
