We consider the problem of admission control in resource sharing systems, such as web servers and transaction processing systems, when the job size distribution has high variabili...
Abstract—We present reliability solutions for adaptable Network RAM systems running on general-purpose clusters. Network RAM allows nodes with over-committed memory to swap pages...
Abstract. Modelling is becoming a necessity in studying biological signalling pathways, because the combinatorial complexity of such systems rapidly overwhelms intuitive and qualit...
Abstract. As parallelism in microprocessors becomes mainstream, new programming languages and environments are emerging to meet the challenges of parallel programming. To support r...
