In data-intensive computing, an important problem that has received relatively little attention is of transparent processing of data stored in remote data repositories. Interesting...
In EM and related algorithms, E-step computations distribute easily, because data items are independent given parameters. For very large data sets, however, even storing all of th...
In asynchronous collaborative applications, users usually collaborate accessing and modifying shared information independently. We have designed and implemented a replicated objec...
A parallel file may be physically stored on several independent disks and logically partitioned by several processors. This paper presents general algorithms for mapping between t...
UsenetDHT is a system that reduces the storage and bandwidth resources required to run a Usenet server by spreading the burden of data storage across participants. UsenetDHT distr...
