— Self-management has often been proposed as a means to reduce the growing complexity of administration in distributed systems. We argue that this can be achieved through aggress...
This paper presents the System Status suite of applications. These applications are used to provide a simple, uniform, and low developer cost system for exporting and tracking the...
This paper discusses the impact of the hierarchical master-worker paradigm on performance of an application program, which solves an optimization problem by a parallel branch and ...
In this paper, we present a novel approach to automatically determine the positions of sensors and actuators in an ad-hoc distributed network of heterogeneous general purpose comp...
Abstract. When parallelizing hierarchical view frustum culling and collision detection, the low computation cost per node and the fact that the traversal path through the tree stru...
