Abstract—To enable decentralised actions in very large distributed systems, it is often important to provide the nodes with global knowledge about the values of attributes across...

In this paper we present a model for dynamically scheduling HTTP requests across clusters of servers, optimizing the use of client resources as well as the scattered server nodes....
Background: Life Science Identifiers (LSIDs) are persistent, globally unique identifiers for biological objects. The decentralised nature of LSIDs makes them attractive for identi...
— Many inference problems that arise in sensor networks require the computation of a global conclusion that is consistent with local information known to each node. A large class...
We present three distributed algorithms to build global inverted files for very large text collections. The distributed environment we use is a high bandwidth network of workstati...
