Divisible load applications consist of a load, that is input data and associated computation, that can be divided arbitrarily into independent pieces. Such applications arise in m...
We present Airavat, a MapReduce-based system which provides strong security and privacy guarantees for distributed computations on sensitive data. Airavat is a novel integration o...

This paper presents a new approach for analyzing the performance of grid scheduling algorithms for tasks with dependencies. Finding the optimal procedures for DAG scheduling in Gr...
Despite years of research, the design of efficient nonblocking algorithms remains difficult. A key reason is that current shared-memory multiprocessor architectures support only s...
