The inability to perform optimizations based on application-specific information presents a hurdle to the deployment of pervasive LAN file systems across WAN environments. This pa...
Continuously monitoring the link performance is important to network diagnosis. Recently, active probes sent between end systems are widely used to monitor the link performance. I...
In many distributed computing systems that are prone to either induced or spontaneous node failures, the number of available computing resources is dynamically changing in a rando...
