The paper presents a similarity-based retrieval framework for a software repository that aids the process of maintaining, understanding, and migrating legacy software systems [12]...
based on an abstract concept of quiescence. In the following we sketch this and a related model, describe the design of our experiments, and present the results of our simulation s...
Cloud computing has the potential for tremendous benefits, but wide scale adoption has a range of challenges that must be met. We review these challenges and how they relate to sc...
Abstract-The analysis of data usage in a large set of real traces from a high-energy physics collaboration revealed the existence of an emergent grouping of files that we coined &q...
Due to the prevalence of peer dynamics (i.e., churn), object maintenance becomes a fundamental issue in peer-to-peer storage systems. Although quite a few prototypes have been des...
