High availability is a critical feature for service clusters and cloud computing, and is often considered more valuable than performance. One commonly used technique to enhance the...
The performance of graph based clustering methods critically depends on the quality of the distance function, used to compute similarities between pairs of neighboring nodes. In t...
In this paper, we present the design and implementation of Dodo, an e cient user-level system for harvesting idle memory in o -the-shelf clusters of workstations. Dodo enables dat...
Over the last decade, Message Passing Interface (MPI) has become a very successful parallel programming environment for distributed memory architectures such as clusters. However, ...
Future scalable, high throughput, and high performance applications are likely to execute on platforms constructed by clustering multiple autonomous distributed servers, with reso...
