Network of workstation (NOW) is a cost-effective alternative to massively parallel supercomputers. As commercially available off-theshelf processors become cheaper and faster, it...
—There exists a certain level of ambiguity regarding whether network coding can further improve download performance in P2P content distribution systems, as compared to commonly ...
Abstract--For the management of a virtual P2P supercomputer one is interested in subgroups of processors that can communicate with each other efficiently. The task of finding these...
We study the problem of clustering uncertain objects whose locations are uncertain and described by probability density functions. We analyze existing pruning algorithms and experi...
List scheduling algorithms attempt to minimize latency under resource constraints using a priority list. We propose a new heuristic that can be used in conjunction with any priori...
