To accommodate the needs of large-scale distributed P2P systems, scalable data management strategies are required, allowing applications to efficiently cope with continuously growing, highly dis tributed data. This paper addresses the…
The development of the Parallel ROOT Facility, PROOF, enables a physicist to analyze and understand much larger data sets on a shorter time scale. It makes use of the inherent parallelism in event data and implements an architecture that…
Internet of Things (IoT) has gained substantial attention over the past years. And the main discussion has been how to process the amount of data that it generates which has lead to the edge computing paradigm. Wether it is called fog1,…
Motivated by developer productivity, serverless computing, and microservices have become the de facto development model in the cloud. Microservices decompose monolithic applications into separate functional units deployed individually. This…
Parallel programs require software support to coordinate access to shared data. For this purpose, modern programming languages provide strongly-consistent shared objects. To account for their many usages, these objects offer a large API.…
In this work, we explore an object-based programming model for filling the space between shared memory and distributed systems programming. We argue that the natural representation for resources distributed across a memory network (e.g.…
The Internet of Things (IoT) envisions that objects may be connected to the Internet, producing and consuming data in real-time. Today, numerous middleware platforms are available to facilitate the communication with these objects.…
AI training and inference impose sustained, fine-grain I/O that stresses host-mediated, TCP-based storage paths. Motivated by kernel-bypass networking and user-space storage stacks, we revisit POSIX-compatible object storage for GPU-centric…
Process mining aims to comprehend and enhance business processes by analyzing event logs. Recently, object-centric process mining has gained traction by considering multiple objects interacting with each other in a process. This…
Environment modeling in autonomous driving is realized by two fundamental approaches, grid-based and feature-based approach. Both methods interpret the environment differently and show some situation-dependent beneficial realizations. In…
Worldwide, storage demands and costs are increasing. As a consequence of fault tolerance, storage device heterogenity, and data center specific constraints, optimal storage capacity utilization cannot be achieved with the integrated…
Object placement aims to place a foreground object over a background image with a suitable location and size. In this work, we treat object placement as a graph completion problem and propose a novel graph completion module (GCM). The…
We present an approach to the distributed storage of data across a swarm of mobile robots that forms a shared global memory. We assume that external storage infrastructure is absent, and that each robot is capable of devoting a quota of…
We study the problem of continuous object dissemination---given a large number of users and continuously arriving new objects, deliver an object to all users who prefer the object. Many real world applications analyze users' preferences for…
Spark is an in-memory analytics platform that targets commodity server environments today. It relies on the Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) to persist intermediate checkpoint states and final processing results. In Spark, immutable…
Currently, one of the hottest topics in the Internet of Things (IoT) research domain regards the issue to overcome the heterogeneity of proprietary technologies and systems so as to enable the integration of applications and devices…
Current approaches of enforcing FGAC in Database Management Systems (DBMS) do not scale in scenarios when the number of policies are in the order of thousands. This paper identifies such a use case in the context of emerging smart spaces…
The AliEn (ALICE Environment) file catalogue is a global unique namespace providing mapping between a UNIX-like logical name structure and the corresponding physical files distributed over 80 storage elements worldwide. Powerful search…
Object SLAM is considered increasingly significant for robot high-level perception and decision-making. Existing studies fall short in terms of data association, object representation, and semantic mapping and frequently rely on additional…
With the rapid increase in smart objects forming IoT fabric, it is inevitable to see billions of devices connected together, forming large-scale IoT networks. This expeditious increase in IoT devices is giving rise to increased user…
