Automatic contention detection and amelioration for data-intensive operations
To take full advantage of the parallelism offered by a multicore machine, one must write parallel code. Writing parallel code is difficult. Even when one writes correct code, the...

Optimizing through Co-evolutionary Avalanches
Abstract. We explore a new general-purpose heuristic for nding highquality solutions to hard optimization problems. The method, called extremal optimization, is inspired by self-or...

Improving Search Using a Fault-Tolerant Overlay in Unstructured P2P Systems
Gnutella overlays have evolved to use a two-tier topology. However, we observed that the new topology had only achieved modest improvements in search success rates. Also, the new ...

Implementing an Append-Only Interface for Semiconductor Storage
Solid-state disks are currently based on NAND flash and expose a standard disk interface. To accommodate limitations of the medium, solid-state disk implementations avoid rewritin...
