- Software: No longer business as usual
- article root[Edited by: admin on Nov 18, 2005 12:39 PM]We never bought software anywayWhy should this be surprise? The market has finally realized that we never "bought" software anyway. It was just rented - through the vendors' constantly varying licensing schemes. Since the software is not really owned, as other...

- Load Balancing Techniques for Distributed Stream Processing Applications in Overlay Environments
- Service overlays that support distributed stream processing applications are increasingly being deployed in wide-area environments. The inherent heterogeneous, dynamic and large-scale nature of these systems makes it difficult to meet the Quality of Service QoS requirements of the distributed stream processing applications. This paper address the load balancing problem for...

- Declarative Development of Distributed Applications
- This paper presents an approach for the convenient implementation and efficient execution of distributed XML message processing applications. Various application classes such as Web Services are based on asynchronously exchanging XML data. However, today's programming languages and execution systems fail to support their particular demands such as integrated XML type...

- Performance Analysis of Distributed Data Base Systems
- In this paper we briefly present the design of a distributed relational data base system. Then, we discuss experimental observations of the performance of that system executing both short and long commands. Conclusions are also drawn concerning metrics that distributed query processing heuristics should attempt to minimize. Lastly, we comment...

- Efficiency of Distributed Parallel Processing Using Java RMI, Sockets, and CORBA
- Software development is proceeding at a remarkable rate. Many new tools are available to the researcher in parallel and distributed processing. These tools include PVM, MPI, and Java. But, recently, a more general tool, Common Object Request Broker Architecture, CORBA has appeared. Since it allows a general view of remote...

- Dynamic Load Balancing in Distributed Systems in the Presence of Delays: A Regeneration-Theory Approach
- A regeneration-theory approach is undertaken to analytically characterize the average overall completion time in a distributed system. The approach considers the heterogeneity in the processing rates of the nodes as well as the randomness in the delays imposed by the communication medium. The optimal one-shot load balancing policy is developed...

- A Comparison of Stream-Oriented High-Availability Algorithms
- Recently, significant efforts have focused on developing novel data-processing systems to support a new class of applications that commonly require sophisticated and timely processing of high-volume data streams. Early work in stream processing has primarily focused on stream-oriented languages and resource-constrained, one-pass query-processing. High availability, an increasingly important goal for...

- Policy-Controlled Event Management for Distributed Intrusion Detection
- A powerful strategy in intrusion detection is the separation of surveillance mechanisms from a site's policy for processing observed events. The Bro intrusion detection system has been using the notion of policy-neutral events as the basic building blocks for the formulation of a site's security policy since its conception. A...

- Parallel Distributed Processing and Lexical - Semantic Effects in Visual Word Recognition: Are a Few Stages Necessary?
- D. C. Plaut and J. R. Booth (2000) presented a parallel distributed processing model that purports to simulate human lexical decision performance. This model (and D. C. Plaut, 1995) offers a single mechanism account of the pattern of factor effects on Reaction Time RT between semantic priming, word frequency, and...

- Centralized Call Processing and Survivable Remote Site Telephony
- When Cisco Systems replaced its traditional PBX systems with Cisco CallManager clusters in 2000, employees on campuses worldwide began using Cisco IP phones and Cisco IP SoftPhone software. The infrastructure and support requirements of this distributed model proved prohibitive. Another shortcoming of the distributed call processing architecture for Cisco was...

- A VLAN Ethernet Backplane for Distributed Network Systems
- In a network system, such as a router or a switch, it is difficult to achieve flexibility and performance at the same time. This paper proposes an architecture that consists of network processors for packet processing and a VLAN-based Ethernet backplane for switching. This allows to use flexible network processors...
