Abstract. The continuous media applications have an implied temporal dimension, i.e. they are presented at a particular rate for a particular length of time and if the required rat...
This paper is on the Consensus problem, in the context of asynchronous distributed systems made of n processes, at most f of them may crash. A family of failure detector classes s...
Multi colony ant algorithms are evolutionary optimization heuristics that are well suited for parallel execution. Information exchange between the colonies is an important topic th...

Speculative thread-level parallelism has been recently proposed as an alternative source of parallelism that can boost the performance for applications where independent threads a...
Abstract. The current generation of data mining tools have limited capacity and performance, since these tools tend to be sequential. This paper explores a migration path out of th...
Dynamic replication algorithms aim at allocating, migrating and deleting copies of an object over various Internet hosts, according to the access patterns exhibited online, so as ...
As communication and I/O traffic increase on the interconnection network of high-performance systems, network contention becomes a critical problem drastically reducing performan...
