Gang Scheduling and related techniques are widely believed to be necessary for efficientjob scheduling on distributed memory parallel computers. This is hecause they minimize cont...
Fast and effective distribution of software updates (a.k.a. patches) to millions of Internet users has evolved into a critical task over the last years. In this paper, we characte...

As more applications rely on underlying peer-to-peer topologies, the need for efficient and resilient infrastructure has become more pressing. A number of important classes of top...
The asymptotic distribution of estimates that are based on a sub-optimal search for the maximum of the log-likelihood function is considered. In particular, estimation schemes that...
It has been an important research topic since 1992 to maximize stability region in constrained queueing systems, which includes the study of scheduling over wireless ad hoc networ...
