In this research, we investigate and address the challenges of asymmetry in High-End Computing (HEC) systems comprising heterogeneous architectures with varying I/O and computation...
As computational clusters increase in size, their mean-time-to-failure reduces. Typically checkpointing is used to minimize the loss of computation. Most checkpointing techniques, ...
Generic database replication algorithms do not scale linearly in throughput as all update, deletion and insertion (UDI) queries must be applied to every database replica. The thro...
- This paper suggests that since web browsing is an interactive process and downloading a web page can take several seconds to several minutes over slow links, the information pres...
An efficient and distributed scheme for file mapping or file lookup scheme is critical in decentralizing metadata management within a group of metadata servers. This paper present...
