We investigate an online version of a basic scheduling problem where a set of jobs has to be scheduled on a number of identical machines so as to minimize the makespan. The job pr...
— We are developing a distributed computing system, Virtuoso, which presents virtual machines (VMs) as its fundabstraction to end users. Long-running noninteractive VMs may coexi...
Spatial databases are entering an era of mass deployment in various real-life applications, especially mobile and location-based services. The real-time processing of spatial quer...
