Data replication in distributed databases has been investigated extensively with the hope that it will improve performance, reliability, and availability. However, the growth of t...
To support incremental replay of message-passing applications, processes must periodically checkpoint and the content of some messages must be logged, to break dependencies of the...
Informed prefetching provides a simple mechanism for I/O-intensive, cache-ineffective applications to efficiently exploit highly-parallel I/O subsystems such as disk arrays. This ...
