Congestion control algorithms, such as TCP or the closelyrelated additive increase-multiplicative decrease algorithms, are extremely difficult to simulate on a large scale. The re...
For a given set of search engines, a search engine is redundant if its searchable contents can be found from other search engines in this set. In this paper, we propose a method t...
We present a probabilistic model for generating personalised recommendations of items to users of a web service. The Matchbox system makes use of content information in the form o...
We introduce and analyze a deterministic fluid model that serves as an approximation for the Gt/GI/st + GI manyserver queueing model, which has a general time-varying arrival pro...
Although server technology provides a means to support a wide range of online services and applications, their ad-hoc configuration poses significant challenges to the performan...
