Peer-to-peer systems enable efficient resource aggregation and are inherently scalable since they do not depend on any centralized authority. However, lack of a centralized autho...
This paper describes TimeLine, an efficient archive service for a distributed storage system. TimeLine allows users to take snapshots on demand. The archive is stored online so th...
The management and access of distributed informational resources has emerged as an important requirement for scientific simulations using high-performance computing facilities. Bot...
Cluster-based multi-tier systems provide a means for building scalable Internet services. Building adaptive Internet services that are able to apply appropriate system sizing and ...
