Monitoring and information services form a key component of a distributed system, or Grid. A quantitative study of such services can aid in understanding the performance limitations, advise in the deployment of the systems, and help…
Nowadays, the size of the Internet is experiencing rapid growth. As of December 2014, the number of global Internet websites has more than 1 billion and all kinds of information resources are integrated together on the Internet, however,the…
Analyzing structural properties of social networks, such as identifying their clusters or finding their most central nodes, has many applications. However, these applications are not supported by federated social networks that allow users…
In data centers, data replication is the primary method used to ensure availability of customer data. To avoid correlated failure, cloud storage infrastructure providers model hierarchical failure domains using a tree, and avoid placing a…
Tensor network methods provide a scalable solution to represent high-dimensional data. However, their efficacy is often limited by static, expert-defined structures that fail to adapt to evolving data correlations. We address this…
Content dissemination networks are pervasive in todays Internet. Examples of content dissemination networks include peer-to-peer networks (P2P), content distribution networks (CDN) and information centric networks (ICN). In this paper, we…
We study the compressive diffusion strategies over distributed networks based on the diffusion implementation and adaptive extraction of the information from the compressed diffusion data. We demonstrate that one can achieve a comparable…
We study the use of local heuristics to determine spanning subgraphs for use in the dissemination of information in complex networks. We introduce two different heuristics and analyze their behavior in giving rise to spanning subgraphs that…
Link discovery is an active field of research to support data integration in the Web of Data. Due to the huge size and number of available data sources, efficient and effective link discovery is a very challenging task. Common pairwise link…
Distributed Search Engine Architecture (DSEA) hosts numerous independent topic-specific search engines and selects a subset of the databases to search within the architecture. The objective of this approach is to reduce the amount of space…
We present the \crprecis structure, that is a general-purpose, deterministic and sub-linear data structure for summarizing \emph{update} data streams. The \crprecis structure yields the \emph{first deterministic sub-linear space/time…
Sequential abstractive neural summarizers often do not use the underlying structure in the input article or dependencies between the input sentences. This structure is essential to integrate and consolidate information from different parts…
A Content Distribution Network (CDN) can be defined as an overlay system that replicates copies of contents at multiple points of a network, close to the final users, with the objective of improving data access. CDN technology is widely…
Many academic disciplines - including information systems, computer science, and operations management - face scheduling problems as important decision making tasks. Since many scheduling problems are NP-hard in the strong sense, there is a…
Graph clustering is a fundamental computational problem with a number of applications in algorithm design, machine learning, data mining, and analysis of social networks. Over the past decades, researchers have proposed a number of…
This paper presents a case for exploiting the synergy of dedicated and opportunistic network resources in a distributed hosting platform for data stream processing applications. Our previous studies have demonstrated the benefits of…
Scalable machine learning over big data is an important problem that is receiving a lot of attention in recent years. On popular distributed environments such as Hadoop running on a cluster of commodity machines, communication costs are…
Summarizing content contributed by individuals can be challenging, because people make different lexical choices even when describing the same events. However, there remains a significant need to summarize such content. Examples include the…
Multivariate time series forecasting with hierarchical structure is widely used in real-world applications, e.g., sales predictions for the geographical hierarchy formed by cities, states, and countries. The hierarchical time series (HTS)…
Multiple probabilistic packet marking (PPM) schemes for IP traceback have been proposed to deal with Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks by reconstructing their attack graphs and identifying the attack sources. In this paper, ten…
