Abstract—Network applications often require large data storage resources, fast queries, and frequent updates. Hash tables support these operations with low costs, yet they cannot...
We study the specification of access control policy in large-scale distributed systems. Our work on real-world policies has shown that standard policy idioms such as role hierarc...
To use their pool of resources efficiently, distributed stream-processing systems push query operators to nodes within the network. Currently, these operators, ranging from simple...
