The Time Warp protocol is considered to be an effective synchronization mechanism for parallel discrete event simulation (PDES). However, it is widely recognized that it suffers o...
In this study we present a scheme called two-dimensional BubbleUp (2DB) for managing parallel disks in a multimedia server. Its goal is to reduce initial latency for interactive m...
Commercial airlines often encounter imbalances in their inventory of unit loading devices (ULDs). A stochastic simulation model was developed to evaluate inventory policies. The s...

Load balancing in packet-switched networks is a task of ever-growing importance. Network traffic properties, such as the Zipf-like flow length distribution and bursty transmissio...
1 Since I/O-intensive tasks running on a heterogeneous cluster need a highly effective usage of global I/O resources, previous CPUor memory-centric load balancing schemes suffer ...
