We study efficient query processing in distributed web search engines with global index organization. The main performance bottleneck in this case is due to the large amount of i...
Network processors today consists of multiple parallel processors (microengines) with support for multiple threads to exploit packet level parallelism inherent in network workload...
Performing experimental evaluation of fault tolerant distributed systems is a complex and tedious task, and automating as much as possible of the execution and evaluation of exper...
In large-scale distributed systems, asynchronous communication and future objects are becoming wide spread mechanisms to tolerate high latencies and to improve global performances...
With the increasing gap between processor speed and memory latency, the performance of data-dominated programs are becoming more reliant on fast data access, which can be improved...
