Blocked-execution multiprocessor architectures continuously run atomic blocks of instructions — also called Chunks. Such architectures can boost both performance and software pr...
The proliferation of the Internet is fueling the development of mobile computing environments in which mobile code is executed on remote sites. In such environments, the end user ...
In lots of natural language processing tasks, the classes to be dealt with often occur heavily imbalanced in the underlying data set and classifiers trained on such skewed data t...
User-perceived latency is recognized as the central performance problem in the Web. We systematically measure factors contributing to this latency, across several locations. Our s...
A major challenge facing grid applications is the appropriate handling of failures. In this paper we address the problem of making parallel Java applications based on Remote Method...
