Large-scale web and text retrieval systems deal with amounts of data that greatly exceed the capacity of any single machine. To handle the necessary data volumes and query through...
As technology scales ever further, device unreliability is creating excessive complexity for hardware to maintain the illusion of perfect operation. In this paper, we consider whe...
