Grids functionally combine globally distributed computers and information systems for creating a universal source of computing power and information. A key characteristic of grids ...
We present a memory-aware load balancing (MALB) technique to dispatch transactions to replicas in a replicated database. Our MALB algorithm exploits knowledge of the working sets ...

—Recent advances in DNA sequencing techniques have led to an unprecedented accumulation and availability of molecular sequence data that needs to be analyzed. This data explosion...
The IETF is currently standardizing a light-weight protocol framework for server redundancy and session failover: Reliable Server Pooling (RSerPool). It is the novel combination o...
Load balancing is often used to ensure that nodes in a distributed systems are equally loaded. In this paper, we show that for real-time systems, load balancing is not desirable. ...
