Declustering and replication are well known techniques used to improve response time of queries in parallel disk environments. As data replication incurs a penalty for updates, da...
Creating replicas of frequently accessed objects across a read-intensive network can result in large bandwidth savings which, in turn, can lead to reduction in user response time....
As the size of available datasets in various domains is growing rapidly, there is an increasing need for scaling data mining implementations. Coupled with the current trends in co...
Data replication is an excellent technique to move and cache data close to users. By replication, data access performance can be improved dramatically. One of the challenges in da...
In a Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET), due to the mobility and energy limitations of nodes, disconnection and network partitioning occur frequently. In addition, transactions in many...
