Designing applications with timeliness requirements in environments of uncertain synchrony is known to be a difficult problem. In this paper, we follow the perspective of timing ...
This paper studies cluster load balancing policies and system support for fine-grain network services. Load balancing on a cluster of machines has been studied extensively in the...
—Network Intrusion Detection System (NIDS) is a system which can detect network attacks resulted from worms and viruses on the Internet. An efficient pattern matching algorithm p...
Implementing a fault-tolerant state machine boils down to reaching consensus on a sequence of commands. In wide area networks (WANs), where network delays are typically large and ...
