Virtual machine (VM) memory allocation and VM consolidation can benefit from the prediction of VM page miss rate at each candidate memory size. Such prediction is challenging for...
We introduce the first process algebra with non-blocking reading actions for modelling concurrent asynchronous systems. We study the impact this new kind of actions has on fairnes...

The perceived advantages of distributed systems, such as increased reliability and availability, are o set by the increased complexity of developing such applications. The develop...
—Masking fault-tolerance guarantees that programs continually satisfy their specification in the presence of faults. By way of contrast, nonmasking fault-tolerance does not guara...
