—One of the main obstacles in obtaining high performance from message-passing multicomputer systems is the inevitable communication overhead which is incurred when tasks executin...
Time synchronization is necessary in many distributed systems, but achieving synchronization in sensornets, which combine stringent precision requirements with severe resource con...

We design two different strategies for computing the unknown content preferences in an online social network based on a small set of nodes in the corresponding social graph for wh...
Existing task allocation algorithms generally do not consider the effects of task interaction, such as interference, but instead assume that tasks are independent. That assumptio...
In this paper, we study the problem of utility maximization in P2P systems, in which aggregate application-specific utilities are maximized by running distributed algorithms on P2...
