Large distributed Grid systems pose new challenges in job scheduling due to complex workload characteristics and system characteristics. Due to the numerous parameters that must b...
In the classic multi-armed bandits problem, the goal is to have a policy for dynamically operating arms that each yield stochastic rewards with unknown means. The key metric of int...
Several recently proposed infrastructures permit client applications to interact with distributed network-accessible services by simply ”plugging in” into a substrate that pro...

We propose a programming language, called PCML5, for building distributed applications with distributed access control. Target applications include web-based systems in which prog...
This paper addresses the problem of scheduling concurrent jobs on clusters where application data is stored on the computing nodes. This setting, in which scheduling computations ...
