Advances in network technology continue to improve the communication performance of workstation and PC clusters, making high-performance workstation-clustercomputing increasingly ...
This paper describes a highly available distributedvideo on demand (VoD) service which is inherently fault tolerant. The VoD service is provided by multiple servers that reside at...
Instruction fetch bandwidth is feared to be a major limiting factor to the performance of future wide-issue aggressive superscalars. In this paper, we focus on Database applicatio...
We present a new arrangement of directory bits called the segment directory to improve directory storage efficiency: a segment directory can point to several sharing processors wi...
In this paper we present a new fault tolerant clock synchronization algorithm called the Fault Tolerant Daisy Chain algorithm. It is intended for internal clock synchronization of...
