In recent years, several frameworks have been developed for processing very large quantities of data on large clusters of commodity PCs. These frameworks have focused on fault-tole...
The recent evolution of Internet, driven by the Web services technology, is extending the role of the Web from a support of information interaction to a middleware for B2B interac...
In large-scale clusters and computational grids, component failures become norms instead of exceptions. Failure occurrence as well as its impact on system performance and operatio...
Clusters of workstations have emerged as an important platform for building cost-effective, scalable, and highlyavailable computers. Although many hardware solutions are available...
