In P2P file sharing systems, free-riders who use others’ resources without sharing their own cause system-wide performance degradation. Existing techniques to counter freerider...
We consider the following basic question: a source node wishes to stream an ordered sequence of packets to a collection of receivers, which are distributed among a number of clust...

We introduce the coupled placement problem for modern data centers spanning placement of application computation and data among available server and storage resources. While the t...
Several 64‐processor XMT systems have now been shipped to customers and there have been 128‐processor, 256‐processor and 512‐ processor systems teste...
Although processors become massively multicore and therefore new programming models mix message passing and multi-threading, the effects of threads on communication libraries rema...
—High-end machines at modern HPC centers are constantly undergoing hardware and system software upgrades – necessitating frequent rebuilds of application codes. The number of p...
Desktop Grids are rapidly gaining popularity as a costeffective computing platform for the execution of applications with extensive computing needs. As opposed to grids and cluste...
Emerging DNA sequencing technologies open up exciting new opportunities for genome sequencing by generating read data with a massive throughput. However, produced reads are signif...
