Collaboration and Technology
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 24th International Conference on Collaboration and Technology, CRIWG 2018, held in Costa de Caparica, Portugal, in September 2018. The 11 revised full papers presented together with 6 short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 32 submissions. The papers published in the proceedings of this year span dierent areas of collaborative computing research, from collaborative learning to collaboration through social media and virtual communities.
High Performance Computing and Communications
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the First International Conference on High-Performance Computing and Communications, HPCC 2005, held in Sorrento, Italy in September 2005. The 76 revised full papers and 44 revised short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 273 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on network protocols, routing, and algorithms; languages and compilers for HPC; parallel and distributed system architectures; embedded systems; parallel and distributed algorithms, wireless and mobile computing, Web services and Internet computing; peer-to-peer computing, grid and cluster computing, reliability, fault-tolerance, and security; performance evaluation and measurement; tools and environments for software development; distributed systems and applications; high performance scientific and engineering computing; database applications and data mining; HPSRF; pervasive computing and communications; and LMS.
On the feasibility of multi-leader replication in the early tiers
In traditional service architectures that follow the service statelessness principle, the state is primarily held in the data tier. Here, service operators utilize tailored storage solutions to guarantee the required availability; even though failures can occur at any time. This centralized approach to store and process an application’s state in the data tier implies that outages of the entire tier cannot be tolerated. An alternative approach, which is in focus of this thesis, is to decentralize the processing of state information and to use more stateful components in the early tiers. The possibility to tolerate a temporary outage of an entire tier implies that the application’s state c...
Database Internals
When it comes to choosing, using, and maintaining a database, understanding its internals is essential. But with so many distributed databases and tools available today, it’s often difficult to understand what each one offers and how they differ. With this practical guide, Alex Petrov guides developers through the concepts behind modern database and storage engine internals. Throughout the book, you’ll explore relevant material gleaned from numerous books, papers, blog posts, and the source code of several open source databases. These resources are listed at the end of parts one and two. You’ll discover that the most significant distinctions among many modern databases reside in subsys...
Groupware: Design, Implementation, and Use
This book constitutes the refereed post-conference proceedings of the 14th International Workshop on Groupware: Design, Implementation, and Use, held in Omaha, Nebraska, USA, during September 14-18, 2008. The 30 papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submission. The topics covered are groupware solutions, co-located groups, groupware for health care, collaborative systems development, collaborative emergency response, groupware approaches, patterns of collaboration, thinklets-based process design, mobile applications, knowledge and learning, groupware technologies, and collaborative modeling.
Euro-Par 2007 Parallel Processing
This volume constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 13th International Conference on Parallel Computing. The papers are organized into topical sections covering support tools and environments, performance prediction and evaluation, scheduling and load balancing, compilers for high performance, parallel and distributed databases, grid and cluster computing, peer-to-peer computing, distributed systems and algorithms, and more.
Euro-Par 2008 Parallel Processing
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 14th International Conference on Parallel Computing, Euro-Par 2008, held in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain, in August 2008. The 86 revised papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 264 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on support tools and environments; performance prediction and evaluation; scheduling and load balancing; high performance architectures and compilers; parallel and distributed databases; grid and cluster computing; peer-to-peer computing; distributed systems and algorithms; parallel and distributed programming; parallel numerical algorithms; distributed and high-performance multimedia; theory and algorithms for parallel computation; and high performance networks.
Transactions on Large-Scale Data- and Knowledge-Centered Systems XXXIV
This volume, the 34th issue of Transactions on Large-Scale Data- and Knowledge-Centered Systems, constitutes a special issue consisting of seven papers on the subject of Consistency and Inconsistency in Data-Centric Applications. The volume opens with an invited article on basic postulates for inconsistency measures. Three of the remaining six papers are revised, extended versions of papers presented at the First International Workshop on Consistency and Inconsistency, COIN 2016, held in conjunction with DEXA 2016 in Porto, Portugal, in September 2016. The other three papers were selected from submissions to a call for contributions to this edition. Each of the papers highlights a particular subtopic. However, all are concerned with logical inconsistencies that are either to be systematically avoided, or reasoned with consistently, i.e., without running the danger of an explosion of inferences.
Groupware: Design, Implementation, and Use
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th International Workshop on Groupware, CRIWG 2005, held in Porto de Galinhas, Brazil in September 2005. The 16 revised full papers and 13 revised short papers presented together with a keynote paper were carefully reviewed and selected from 67 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on groupware development, collaborative applications, workflow management, knowledge management, computer supported collaborative learning, group decision support systems, mobile collaborative work, and work modeling in CSCW.
Designing Data-Intensive Applications
Data is at the center of many challenges in system design today. Difficult issues need to be figured out, such as scalability, consistency, reliability, efficiency, and maintainability. In addition, we have an overwhelming variety of tools, including relational databases, NoSQL datastores, stream or batch processors, and message brokers. What are the right choices for your application? How do you make sense of all these buzzwords? In this practical and comprehensive guide, author Martin Kleppmann helps you navigate this diverse landscape by examining the pros and cons of various technologies for processing and storing data. Software keeps changing, but the fundamental principles remain the s...
