Storing data in distributed systems aims to offer higher bandwidth and scalability than storing locally. But, a couple of disadvantageous issues must be taken into account such as...
—Divisible load model allows scheduling algorithms that give nearly optimal makespan with practical computational complexity. Beaumont et al. have shown that their algorithm prod...
To construct high performance Web servers, system builders are increasingly turning to distributed designs. An important challenge that arises in such designs is the need to direc...
