Triangular Dynamic Architecture for Distributed Computing in a LAN Environment
A computationally intensive large job, granulized to concurrent pieces and operating in a dynamic environment should reduce the total processing time. However, distributing jobs a...

Paradoxes in distributed decisions on optimal load balancing for networks of homogeneous computers
In completely symmetric systems that have homogeneous nodes (hosts, computers, or processors) with identical arrival processes, an optimal static load balancing scheme does not in...

A Limitation of Vector Timestamps for Reconstructing Distributed Computations
Vector timestamps provide a way of recording the causal relationships between events in a distributed computation. We draw attention to a limitation of such timestamps when used t...

On the complexity of computational problems regarding distributions (a survey)
We consider two basic computational problems regarding discrete probability distributions: (1) approximating the statistical difference (aka variation distance) between two given d...
