We analyze the performance of protocols for load balancing in distributed systems based on no-regret algorithms from online learning theory. These protocols treat load balancing a...
Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are increasingly managing very large sets of data and hence a centralized data repository may not always provide the most scalable solution. H...
Size-based policies have been known to successfully balance load and improve performance in homogeneous cluster environments where a dispatcher assigns a job to a server strictly ...
