Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs) have been proposed as a very powerful heuristic optimization technique to solve complex problems. Many case studies have shown that they work very eff...
Data replication is an excellent technique to move and cache data close to users. By replication, data access performance can be improved dramatically. One of the challenges in da...
This article deals with TakTuk, a middleware that deploys efficiently parallel remote executions on large scale grids (thousands of nodes). This tool is mostly intended for intera...
Abstract—Cross-layer optimization including congestion control, routing, and scheduling has shown dramatic throughput improvement over layered designs for wireless networks. In p...
Garbage collection can be a performance bottleneck in large distributed, multi-threaded applications. Applications may produce millions of objects during their lifetimes and may i...
