Overdecomposition has emerged as a powerful and sometimes essential technique in parallel programming. Many application domains or frameworks, including those based on adaptive mesh refinements, or tree codes use it. Charm++ is a parallel…

Networks connecting distributed cloud services through multiple data centers are called cloud networks. These types of networks play a crucial role in cloud computing and a holistic performance evaluation is essential before planning a…

Edge computing is the practice of placing computing resources at the edges of the Internet in close proximity to devices and information sources. This, much like a cache on a CPU, increases bandwidth and reduces latency for applications but…

Top-tier parallel computing clusters continue to accumulate more and more computational power with more and better CPUs and Networks. This allows, especially for environmental simulations, computations with larger domain sizes and better…

Elasticity is a form of self-adaptivity in cloud-based software systems that is typically restricted to the infrastructure layer and realized through auto-scaling. However, both reactive and proactive forms of infrastructure auto-scaling…

Cloud computing and Internet of Things have independently changed the course of technological development. The use of a synergistic approach that amalgamates the benefits of both these path breaking technologies into a single package is…

Cloud performance fluctuates due to factors such as resource contention and workload changes. These factors can be short-term, seasonal, or long-term. Their effects are often intertwined in performance traces, making performance management…

Network traffic analysis increasingly relies on feature-based representations to support monitoring and security in the presence of pervasive encryption. Although features are more compact than raw packet traces, their storage has become a…

The ability to express a program as a hierarchical composition of parts is an essential tool in managing the complexity of software and a key abstraction this provides is to separate the representation of data from the computation. Many…

Cloud computing has become the ubiquitous computing and storage paradigm. It is also attractive for scientists, because they do not have to care any more for their own IT infrastructure, but can outsource it to a Cloud Service Provider of…

In the past decade, increasingly network scheduling techniques have been proposed to boost the distributed application performance. Flow-level metrics, such as flow completion time (FCT), are based on the abstraction of flows yet they…
