In this paper we argue that it is possible to couple the advantages of programming with the well-known abstraction of RPC with asynchronous programming models adequate for wide-ar...
We address the issue of measuring storage, or query load distribution fairness in peer-to-peer data management systems. Existing metrics may look promising from the point of view ...
Although queueing models have long been used to model the performance of computer systems, they are out of favor with practitioners, because they have a reputation for requiring u...
Random sampling is one of the most fundamental data management tools available. However, most current research involving sampling considers the problem of how to use a sample, and...
Pervasive eLearning requires a novel media perspective on learning objects. Instead of viewing handhelds or smart phones as minimized PCs we would like to propose a perspective on...
