Indexes for large collections are often divided into shards that are distributed across multiple computers and searched in parallel to provide rapid interactive search. Typically,...
It has been an important research topic since 1992 to maximize stability region in constrained queueing systems, which includes the study of scheduling over wireless ad hoc networ...
We analyze several distributed, continuous time protocols for a fair allocation of bandwidths to flows in a network (or resources to agents). Our protocols converge to an allocati...
We present a method for using real world mobility traces to identify tractable theoretical models for the study of distributed algorithms in mobile networks. We validate the metho...
Background: In recent years, the demand for computational power in computational biology has increased due to rapidly growing data sets from microarray and other high-throughput t...
