High Performance computing generally involves some parallel applications to be deployed on the multiples resources used for the computation. The problem of scheduling the applicat...
We propose an approach to lossy source coding, utilizing ideas from Gibbs sampling, simulated annealing, and Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC). The idea is to sample a reconstructio...
In this paper, we design, implement and evaluate AdaptGuard, a software service for guarding adaptive systems, such as QoS-adaptive servers, from instability caused by software an...
This paper discusses implementation of a sequential procedure to construct proportional half-width confidence intervals for a simulation estimator of the steady-state quantiles an...
Several recent studies have proposed methods to accelerate the receipt of a file by downloading its parts from different servers in parallel. The schemes suggested in most propose...
