The fundamental drawback of unstructured peer-to-peer (P2P) networks is the flooding-based query processing protocol that seriously limits their scalability. As a result, a signi...
We consider the problem of embedding finite metrics with slack: we seek to produce embeddings with small dimension and distortion while allowing a (small) constant fraction of al...
Abstract— In recent years our society has witnessed an unprecedented growth in computing power available to tackle important problems in science, engineering and medicine. For ex...
As cluster systems become increasingly popular, more and more parallel applications require need not only computing power but also significant I/O performance. However, the I/O s...
— Given two versions of a file, a current version located on one machine and an outdated version known only to another machine, the remote file synchronization problem is how t...
