Hard-disk drive power consumption reduction methods focus mainly on increasing the amount of time the disk is in standby mode (disk spun down) by implementing aggressive data read...
We present an account of designing and evaluating a university-wide expert search engine. We performed system-based evaluation to determine the optimal retrieval settings and an ex...
File swarming (or file sharing) is one of the most important applications in P2P networks. In this paper, we propose a stochastic framework to analyze a file swarming system und...
