Three protocols for gossip-based failure detection services in large-scale heterogeneous clusters are analyzed and compared. The basic gossip protocol provides a means by which fai...
Because changes to the database (DB) and workload occur during a DB system's lifetime, the physical DB design must evolve to sustain good performance. These changes are carri...
Parallel I/O plays an increasingly important role in today’s data intensive computing applications. While much attention has been paid to parallel read performance, most of this...
In recent years, interior point algorithms have been used successfully for solving mediumto large-size linear programming LP problems. In this paper we describe a highly parallel ...
Real-time resource scheduling is an important factor for improving the performance of cluster computing. In many distributed and parallel processing systems, particularly real-tim...
