Parallel algorithm designers need computational models that take first order system costs into account, but are also simple enough to use in practice. This paper introduces the L...
Cache groups are a powerful concept for database caching, which is used to relieve the backend database load and to keep referenced data close to the application programs at the &q...
In this paper, we present a proof of concept application of a technique that is designed explicitly for face to face collaboration software architectures. The objective is to minim...
As more applications rely on underlying peer-to-peer topologies, the need for efficient and resilient infrastructure has become more pressing. A number of important classes of top...
Numerous data center services exhibit low average utilization leading to poor energy efficiency. Although CPU voltage and frequency scaling historically has been an effective mea...
