Server Allocation Algorithms for Tiered Systems
Many web-based systems have a tiered application architecture, in which a request needs to transverse all the tiers before finishing its processing. One of the most important QoS...

Nearly insensitive bounds on SMART scheduling
We define the class of SMART scheduling policies. These are policies that bias towards jobs with small remaining service times, jobs with small original sizes, or both, with the ...

Classifying scheduling policies with respect to higher moments of conditional response time
In addition to providing small mean response times, modern applications seek to provide users predictable service and, in some cases, Quality of Service (QoS) guarantees. In order...

OGSA-based grid workload monitoring
In heterogeneous and dynamic distributed systems like the Grid, detailed monitoring of workload and its resulting system performance (e.g. response time) is required to facilitate...

Response times in N-user replicated, centralized, and proximity-based hybrid collaboration architectures
We evaluate response times, in N-user collaborations, of the popular centralized (client-server) and replicated (peer-to-peer) architectures, and a hybrid architecture in which ea...

Effects of 2D geometric transformations on visual memory
In order to provide well-grounded guidelines for interface design, we systematically examined the effects of 2D geometric transformations and background grids on visual memory. We...
