Abstract. Buffered coscheduling is a new methodology that can substantially increase resource utilization, improve response time, and simplify the development of the run-time suppo...
Unstructured peer-to-peer systems rely on strategies and data structures (Routing Indices) for the routing of requests in the network. For those requests corresponding to informati...
Sleeping is an important method to reduce energy consumption in many information and communication systems. In this paper we focus on a typical server under dynamic load, where en...

We address the problem of finding parallel plans for SQL queries using the two-phase approach of join ordering followed by parallelization. We focus on the parallelization phase a...
Efficient storage and retrieval of large multidimensional datasets is an important concernfor large-scale scientific computations such as long-running time-dependent simulations w...
In certain real-time applications, ranging from multimedia to telecommunication systems, timing constraints can be more flexible than scheduling theory usually permits. For exampl...
We propose a tunable scheduling strategy that lies between FIFO and shortest- rst, based on the value of a coe cient Alpha. If Alpha is set to zero then this strategy is just FIFO....
Distributed virtual environments allow users at di erent geographical locations to share and interact within a common virtual environment via a local network or through the Intern...

Many world wide web applications require access, transfer, and synchronization of large multimedia data objects (MDOs) (such as, audio, video, and images) across the communication...
Benchmark tests have been designed and conducted for the purpose of evaluating the use of automated tape libraries in on-line digital check image retrieval applications. This type...
