Replication is a technique commonly used to increase the availability of services in distributed systems, including grid and web services. While replication is relatively easy for...

We evaluate the impact of a gigabit network on the implementation of a distributed chemical process optimization application. The optimization problem is formulated as a stochasti...
Background: There are many data mining methods but few comparisons between them. For example, there are at least two ways to build quality optimizers, programs that find project o...
Byzantine agreement algorithms typically assume implicit initial state consistency and synchronization among the correct nodes and then operate in coordinated rounds of informatio...
We present efficient algorithms for computing very sparse low distortion spanners in distributed networks and prove some non-trivial lower bounds on the tradeoff between time, spar...
