We investigate the problem of maintaining a topology with small degree as well as small diameter in a dynamic distributed system such that the system always stays connected and pr...
Abstract—Multi-core systems are now extremely common in modern clusters. In the past commodity systems may have had up to two or four CPUs per compute node. In modern clusters, t...
Abstract— Markets and auctions have been proposed as mechanisms for efficiently and fairly allocating resources in a number of different computational settings. Economic approac...
Cloud computing [22] is a promising paradigm for the provisioning of IT services. Cloud computing infrastructures, such as those offered by the RESERVOIR project, aim to facilitat...
Abstract: With today’s available computer power, free energy calculations from equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations “via counting” become feasible for an increasing num...
