In this paper the online pull-based broadcast model is considered. In this model, there are n pages of data stored at a server and requests arrive for pages online. When the serve...
We propose a network characterization of combinatorial fitness landscapes by adapting the notion of inherent networks proposed for energy surfaces [5]. We use the well-known fami...
This paper focuses on two problems related to QoS-aware I/O server placement in hierarchical Grid environments. Given a hierarchical network with requests from clients, the network...
