Efficient Distributed Algorithms to Build Inverted Files
We present three distributed algorithms to build global inverted files for very large text collections. The distributed environment we use is a high bandwidth network of workstati...

Memory Footprint Reduction with Quasi-Static Shared Libraries in MMU-less Embedded Systems
Despite a rapid decrease in the price of solid state memory devices, system memory is still a very precious resource in embedded systems. The use of shared libraries is known to b...

Design and implementation of a generic resource sharing virtual time dispatcher
Virtual machine monitors, especially when used for server consolidation, need to enforce a predefined sharing of resources among the running virtual machines. We propose a new me...

Low-Overhead Protocols for Fault-Tolerant File Sharing
In this paper, we quantify the adverse effect of file sharing on the performance of reliable distributed applications. We demonstrate that file sharing incurs significant overhead...
