Although in recent years the concept of leasing has become more and more popular in the field of distributed object-oriented systems, it has not yet been incorporated in the curre...
This paper introduces a lightweight, scalable and accurate framework, called Meridian, for performing node selection based on network location. The framework consists of an overla...
We study the problem of asymptotically reducing the runtime of serial computations with circuits of polynomial size. We give an algorithmic size-depth tradeoff for parallelizing ...
We describe a novel approach for building a secure and fault tolerant data storage service in collaborative work environments, which uses perfect secret sharing schemes to store d...
Collaborative capabilities are a hallmark of a new generation of networked applications. While traditional collaboration puts the computer in the foreground to help users interfac...
