I/O is a major performance bottleneck in modern computer systems. Modern disks use the Zone-Bit-Recording (ZBR) technology to increase the capacity. A direct consequence of ZBR is...
Shareable data services providing consistency guarantees, such as atomicity (linearizability), make building distributed systems easier. However, combining linearizability with ef...

This paper uses a probe-based sampling approach to study the behavioural properties of Web server scheduling strategies, such as Processor Sharing (PS) and Shortest Remaining Proc...
A key objective of ATM-based networks is to provide at the same time guaranteed QoS to real time and non-real time services. This calls for thoroughly engineered traffic control m...
The visual representation of complex data has always been a major motivation for computer graphics. However, there have always been computer graphics scenes which were too complex...
