Graph Chatbot

Chattez avec Graph Search

Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.

AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.

BF-Tree: Approximate Tree Indexing

Anastasia Ailamaki, Manoussos Gavriil Athanassoulis

The increasing volume of time-based generated data and the shift in storage technologies suggest that we might need to reconsider indexing. Several workloads - like social and service monitoring - often include attributes with implicit clustering because o ...

Primary Voltage Control in Active Distribution Networks via Broadcast Signals: The Case of Distributed Storage

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Mario Paolone, Dan-Cristian Tomozei, Konstantina Christakou, Maryam Bahramipanah

In this paper, we consider an active distribution network (ADN) that performs primary voltage control using real-time demand response via a broadcast low-rate communication signal. The ADN also owns distributed electrical energy storage. We show that it is ...

Look up!: Your Future is in the Cloud

James Richard Larus

The "Cloud" is a wonderfully expansive phrase used to denote computation and data storage centralized in a large datacenter and elastically accessed across a network. The concept is not new; web sites and business servers have run in datacenters for a long ...

Reliability of clustered vs. declustered replica placement in data storage systems

Rüdiger Urbanke, Christina Fragouli

The placement of replicas across storage nodes in a replication-based storage system is known to affect rebuild times and therefore system reliability. Earlier work has shown that, for a replication factor of two, the reliability is essentially unaffected ...

The complexity of reliable distributed storage

Ron Levy

Distributed storage systems based on commodity hardware have gained in popularity because they are cheaper, can be made more reliable and offer better scalability than centralized storage systems. However, implementing and managing such systems is more com ...

Web Text Retrieval with a P2P Query-Driven Index

Karl Aberer, Martin Rajman, Vinh Toan Luu, Ivana Podnar, Gleb Skobeltsyn

In this paper, we present a query-driven indexing/retrieval strategy for efficient full text retrieval from large document collections distributed within a structured P2P network. Our indexing strategy is based on two important properties: (1) the generate ...

The Alpha of Indulgent Consensus

Rachid Guerraoui

This paper presents a simple framework unifying a family of consensus algorithms that can tolerate process crash failures and asynchronous periods of the network, also called indulgent consensus algorithms. Key to the framework is a new abstraction we intr ...

Maintaining high bandwidth under dynamic network conditions

Dejan Kostic

The need to distribute large files across multiple wide-area sites is becoming increasingly common, for instance, in support of scientific computing, configuring distributed systems, distributing software updates such as open source ISOs or Windows patches ...

Scalable Content-aware Request Distribution in Cluster-based Network Servers

Willy Zwaenepoel

In network (e.g., Web) servers, it is often desirable to isolate the performance of different classes of requests from each other. That is, one seeks to achieve that a certain minimal proportion of server resources are available for a class of requests, in ...

IO-Lite: a unified I/O buffering and caching system

Willy Zwaenepoel

This article presents the design, implementation, and evaluation of IO -Lite, a unified I/O buffering and caching system for general-purpose operating systems. IO-Lite unifies all buffering and caching in the system, to the extent permitted by the hardware ...
