Recent work on client-server data-shipping OODBs has demonstratedthe usefulnessof localdatacachingat clientsites. In addition to data caching, index caching can provide substantia...
Applications of the future will need to support large numbers of clients and will require scalable storage systems that allow state to be shared reliably. Recent research in distr...

A shared data structure is lock-free if its operations do not require mutual exclusion. If one process is interrupted in the middle of an operation, other processes will not be pr...
One objective of distributed artificial intelligence research is to build systems that are capable of cooperative problem solving. To this end, a number of implementation-oriented ...
