Virtualization has been shown to be an attractive path to increase overall system resource utilization. The use of live virtual machine (VM) migration has enabled more effective ...
The use of access predictors to improve storage device performance has been investigated for both improving access times, as well as a means of reducing energy consumed by the dis...

The design of safety-critical systems has typically adopted static techniques to simplify error detection and fault tolerance. However, economic pressure to reduce costs is exposi...
In this paper we present a model for dynamically scheduling HTTP requests across clusters of servers, optimizing the use of client resources as well as the scattered server nodes....
Fault tolerance is a constant concern in data centers where servers have to run with a minimal level of failures. Changes on the operating conditions or on server demands, and var...
