Search engines use inverted files as index data structures to speed up the solution of user queries. The index is distributed on a set of processors forming a cluster of computer...
Scheduling of processes onto processors of a parallel machine has always been an important and challenging area of research. The issue becomes even more crucial and di cult as we ...
For many performance analysis problems, the ability to reason across traces is invaluable. However, due to non-determinism in the OS and virtual machines, even two identical runs ...
MapReduce is a programming model and an associated implementation for processing and generating large data sets. Users specify a map function that processes a key/value pair to ge...
