Resource discovery in a distributed digital library poses many challenges, one of which is how to choose search engines for query distribution, given a query and a set of search e...
Clusters of networked, off-the-shelf workstations are currently used for computationintensive, parallel applications. However, it is hardly possible to predict the timing behaviou...
Control methods are being used increasingly for uncertainty management and QoS in modern web server systems. Previous approaches have suggested combined feedforward and feedback c...
In this paper we present an analytical-based framework for parallel program performance prediction. The main thrust of this work is to provide a means for treating realistic appli...
This paper presents a dynamic technique for predicting the e ect that a location" of a program will have on the program's computational behavior. The technique is based ...
