In large-scale distributed systems, asynchronous communication and future objects are becoming wide spread mechanisms to tolerate high latencies and to improve global performances...
Exponentially growing bandwidth requirements and slowing gains in processor speeds have led to the popularity of multiprocessor architectures. Network stack parallelism is increas...
Content-based dissemination of data using pub/sub systems is an effective means to deliver relevant data to interested data consumers. With the emergence of XML as the standard f...
In the present paper, we examine the problem of supporting application-specific computation within a network file server. Our objectives are (i) to introduce an easy to use yet ...
