Active storage clouds are an attractive platform for executing large data intensive workloads found in many fields of science. However, active storage presents new system managem...
In this paper we address the problem of managing heterogeneous workloads in a virtualized data center. We consider two different workloads: transactional applications and long-ru...

As grid computation systems become larger and more complex, manually diagnosing failures in jobs becomes impractical. Recently, machine-learning techniques have been proposed to d...
In this paper, we introduce the Join-Elect-Leave (JEL) model, a simple yet powerful model for tracking the resources participating in an application. This model is based on the co...

Structured Overlay Networks provide a promising platform for high performance applications since they are scalable, fault-tolerant and self-managing. Structured overlays provide l...
Advances in virtualization technology have focused mainly on strengthening the isolation barrier between virtual machines (VMs) that are co-resident within a single physical machi...
Overlapping computation with communication is a key technique to conceal the effect of communication latency on the performance of parallel applications. MPI is a widely used mess...
