Condor provides high throughput computing by leveraging idlecycles on off-the-shelf desktop machines. It also supports flocking, a mechanism for sharing resources among Condor po...
We present SETS, an architecture for efficient search in peer-to-peer networks, building upon ideas drawn from machine learning and social network theory. The key idea is to arran...
We develop an algorithm for parallel disk sorting, whose I/O cost approaches the lower bound and that guarantees almost perfect overlap between I/O and computation. Previous algor...
Abstract. Distributed heterogeneous search environments are an emerging phenomenon in Web search, in which topic-specific search engines provide search services, and metasearchers...
Abstract. This paper studies the properties and performance of models for estimating local probability distributions which are used as components of larger probabilistic systems ...
