We analyze the performance of protocols for load balancing in distributed systems based on no-regret algorithms from online learning theory. These protocols treat load balancing a...
In this paper we depart from a set of simple assumptions regarding the behavior of a pool of customers associated with an enterprise’s contact center. We assume that the pool of...
– A prototype Internet Research Support System is presented based on earlier work on the modeling of online reading behavior and evaluating the reading process and its outcomes. ...

Experimental performance studies on computer systems, including Grids, require deep understandings on their workload characteristics. The need arises from two important and closel...
In this paper we present an initial analysis of job failures in a large-scale data-intensive Grid. Based on three representative periods in production, we characterize the interar...
