This paper describes GulfStream, a scalable distributed software system designed to address the problem of managing the network topology in a multi-domain server farm. In particul...
This paper studies the use of highly dynamic networks as infrastructures for persistent storage of data that offer services at specific geographical zones in a decentralized and...
Abstract--In the past few years, the problem of distributed consensus has received a lot of attention, particularly in the framework of ad hoc sensor networks. Most methods propose...
We introduce Bayesian Expansion (BE), an approximate numerical technique for passage time distribution analysis in queueing networks. BE uses a class of Bayesian networks to appro...
Abstract— Peer-to-peer based distributed computing environments can be expected to be dynamic to greater of lesser degree. While node losses will not usually lead to catastrophic...
