JavaScript as an Embedded DSL
Martin Odersky, Tiark Rompf, Nada Amin, Grzegorz Kossakowski
Developing rich web applications requires mastering different environments on the client and server sides. While there is considerable choice on the server-side, the client-side is tied to JavaScript, which poses substantial software engineering challenges ...

Francisco De Meneses Neves Ramos Dos Santos
Approximately one billion users have access to mobile broadband, through which they intend to obtain the same data they can reach using a wired connection. Because of the cost of transmitting data over a mobile-broadband connection and given that 3G networ ...
2012Addressing the ZooKeeper Synchronization Inefficiency
André Schiper, Babak Kalantari
In this paper we discuss the problem of synchronization in ZooKeeper, a fault-tolerant distributed coordination framework. One of the key features of ZooKeeper is to move away from blocking API such as locks, in order to avoid problems with slow or faulty ...
2012A NICE Way to Test OpenFlow Applications
Dejan Kostic, Marco Canini, Peter Peresini, Jennifer Rexford
The emergence of OpenFlow-capable switches enables exciting new network functionality, at the risk of programming errors that make communication less reliable. The centralized programming model, where a single controller program manages the network, seems ...
2012Enabling Query Technologies for the Semantic Sensor Web
Karl Aberer, Jean Paul Calbimonte Perez, Ho Young Jeung
Sensor networks are increasingly being deployed in the environment for many different purposes. The observations that they produce are made available with heterogeneous schemas, vocabularies and data formats, making it difficult to share and reuse this dat ...
Igi Publ2012Join-Idle-Queue: A Novel Load Balancing Algorithm for Dynamically Scalable Web Services
The prevalence of dynamic-content web services, exemplified by search and online social networking, has motivated an increasingly wide web-facing front end. Horizontal scaling in the Cloud is favored for its elasticity, and distributed design of load balan ...

Anastasia Ailamaki, Babak Falsafi, Michael Ferdman, Mohammad Alisafaee, Yusuf Onur Koçberber, Stavros Volos, Ilknur Cansu Kaynak, Adrian Daniel Popescu, Al Mutaz Adileh
Emerging scale-out cloud applications need extensive amounts of computational resources. However, data centers using modern server hardware face physical constraints in space and power, limiting further expansion and calling for improvements in the computa ...
2011In-Network Packet Scheduling and Rate Allocation: A Content Delivery Perspective
We investigate two important problems in media delivery via active network agents. First, we consider streaming multiple video assets over a shared backbone network through an intermediate proxy-server to a set of receiving clients. The proxy is located at ...
2011Browsing Catalogue Graphs: Content Caching Supercharged!!
We consider a generic scenario of content browsing where a client is presented with a catalogue of items of interest. Upon the selection of an item from a page of the catalogue, the client can choose the next item to browse from a list of related items pre ...
