Distributed storage systems employ replicas or erasure code to ensure high reliability and availability of data. Such replicas create great amount of network traffic that negative...
In ad-hoc Grids where the availability of resources and tasks changes over the time, distributing the tasks among the scarce resources in a balanced way is a challenging task. In ...
—Recent advances in DNA sequencing techniques have led to an unprecedented accumulation and availability of molecular sequence data that needs to be analyzed. This data explosion...
Desktop Grids represent an alternative trend in Grid computing using the same software infrastructure as Volunteer Computing projects, such as BOINC. Applications to be deployed o...
We describe an approach to elastically scale the performance of a data analytics operator that is part of a streaming application. Our techniques focus on dynamically adjusting th...
