In this paper, we propose using the network-attached disk (NAD) architecture to design highly scalable and cost-effective multimedia-on-demand (MOD) servers. In order to ensure en...
Abstract. Endpoint admission control is a mechanism for achieving scalable services by pushing quality-of-service functionality to end hosts. In particular, hosts probe the network...
We propose a P2P search solution, called EZSearch, that enables efficient multidimensional search for remotely located contents that best match the search criteria. EZSearch is a h...
This paper describes a language-independent, scalable system for both challenges of crossdocument co-reference: name variation and entity disambiguation. We provide system results...
Modern architectures implement relaxed memory models which may reorder memory operations or execute them non-atomically. Special instructions called memory fences are provided, al...
