Utility computing is becoming a popular way of exploiting the potential of computational grids. In utility computing, users are provided with computational power in a transparent ...
In this paper, we quantify the adverse effect of file sharing on the performance of reliable distributed applications. We demonstrate that file sharing incurs significant overhead...
High-performance execution in distributed computing environments often requires careful selection and configuration not only of computers, networks, and other resources but also o...
