We introduce a new technique to solve exactly a discrete optimization problem, based on the paradigm of “negative” thinking. The motivation is that when searching the space of...

A packet scheduler in a quality-of-service QoS network should be sophisticated enough to support stringent QoS constraints at high loads, but it must also have a simple implemen...
The increasing performance and decreasing cost of processors and memory are causing system intelligence to move into peripherals from the CPU. Storage system designers are using t...
Parallel algorithm designers need computational models that take first order system costs into account, but are also simple enough to use in practice. This paper introduces the L...
By providing direct data transfer between storage and client, network-attached storage devices have the potential to improve scalability for existing distributed file systems (by...
