We give the first black-box reduction from arbitrary approximation algorithms to truthful approximation mechanisms for a non-trivial class of multiparameter problems. Specifically,...
— Most proposed DHTs engage certain topology maintenance mechanisms specific to the static graphs on which they are based. The designs of these mechanisms are complicated and rep...
In the ever increasing world of distributed systems, different middleware implementations can be compared qualitatively or quantitatively. Existing evaluation techniques are often...
The number of gates on a chip is quickly growing toward and beyond the one billion mark. Keeping all the gates running at the beat of a single or a few rationally related clocks i...
