We consider the setting of a multiprocessor where the speeds of the m processors can be individually scaled. Jobs arrive over time and have varying degrees of parallelizability. A...
Modern peer-to-peer file sharing systems distribute large files among peers using block partitioning. Blocks can be redistributed by a peer even before the whole file is available...

We analyze the correctness and complexity of two well-known routing algorithms, introduced by Gafni and Bertsekas (1981): By reversing the directions of some edges, these algorith...

We analyze the performance of protocols for load balancing in distributed systems based on no-regret algorithms from online learning theory. These protocols treat load balancing a...
