Abstract - We have experienced in our distributed applications that the network is the main limiting factor for performances on clusters. Indeed clusters are cheap and it is easier...
It is well established that bitmap indices are efficient for read-only attributes with low attribute cardinalities. For an attribute with a high cardinality, the size of the bitma...
In traditional mobile streaming networks such as 3G cellular networks, all users pull streams from a server. Such pull model leads to high streaming cost and problem in system sca...
Communication optimization plays an important role in building networked distributed applications. In this paper, we systematically evaluate four bandwidth reduction algorithms, n...
Abstract— CDNs have been widely used to provide low latency, scalability, fault tolerance, and load balancing for the delivery of web content and more recently streaming media. W...
