Current computing environments are becoming increasingly complex in nature and exhibit unpredictable workloads. These environments create challenges to the design of systems that c...
In this paper we present and evaluate uncoordinated on-line algorithms for simultaneous storage and replication load-balancing in DHT-based peer-to-peer systems. We compare our ap...
Abstract Virtual path management in dynamic networks poses a number of challenges related to combinatorial optimisation, fault and traffic handling. Ideally such management should ...
Spatial abstractions promise to be basic necessary ingredients for a novel “spatial computing” approach to distributed systems development and management, suitable to tackle th...
We propose a new paradigm for software availability enhancement. We offer a two-step strategy: Failure prediction followed by maintenance actions with the objective of avoiding imp...
