Abstract-- In this work, we focus on a class of nonlinear asynchronous systems defined by two different modes of operation, one stable and the other one unstable. The switching bet...
Elasticity of cloud computing environments provides an economic incentive for automatic resource allocation of stateful systems running in the cloud. However, these systems have t...
This paper1 provides a view of modeling the information dominance problem of military systems as representative of modeling other complex systems. The ideas are an extension of ea...
We describe our experiences with the Chubby lock service, which is intended to provide coarse-grained locking as well as reliable (though low-volume) storage for a loosely-coupled...
