Web prefetching techniques have pointed to be especially important to reduce web latencies and, consequently, an important set of works can be found in the open literature. But, in...
Software transactional memory (STM) is a promising technique for controlling concurrency in modern multi-processor architectures. STM aims to be more scalable than explicit coarse...
Finding an efficient configuration for cluster-based multi-tier Internet services is often a difficult task. Moreover, even a good configuration could become obsolete, depending o...
