In this paper, we present an asynchronous consistent global checkpoint collection algorithm which prevents contention for network storage at the file server and hence reduces the...
Storing data in distributed systems aims to offer higher bandwidth and scalability than storing locally. But, a couple of disadvantageous issues must be taken into account such as...
In today’s world, stream processing systems have become important, as applications like media broadcasting, sensor network monitoring and on-line data analysis increasingly rely...
1 Scalable resource monitoring and discovery are essential to the planet-scale infrastructures such as Grids and PlanetLab. This paper proposes a scalable Grid monitoring architect...
Multimedia object caching, by which the same multimedia object can be adapted to diverse mobile appliances through the technique of transcoding, is an important technology for imp...
