In a system proposed by Plaxton, Rajaraman and Richa (PRR), the expected cost of accessing a replicated object was proved to be asymptotically optimal for a static set of nodes an...
—The proliferation of applications that must reliably distribute bulk data to a large number of autonomous clients motivates the design of new multicast and broadcast protocols. ...

We identify crucial design issues in building a distributed inverted index for a large collection of web pages. We introduce a novel pipelining technique for structuring the core ...
In this work we investigate an inverse geometry problem. Given a light source, a diffuse plane and a caustic image, how must a geometric object look like (transmissive or reflect...
Systems software for clusters typically derives from a multiplicity of sources: the kernel itself, software associated with a particular distribution, site-specific purchased or o...
