Large-scale cluster-based Internet services often host partitioned datasets to provide incremental scalability. The aggregation of results produced from multiple partitions is a f...
This paper presents a formal design for a novel group communication service targeted for WANs. The service provides Virtual Synchrony semantics. Such semantics facilitate the desi...
Abstract--Software transactional memory (STM) algorithms often rely on centralized components to achieve atomicity, isolation and consistency. In a distributed setting, centralized...
Within the parallel genetic algorithm framework, there currently exists a growing dichotomy between coarse-pain and fine-grain parallel architectures. This paper attempts to chara...
