As data management applications grow more complex, they are likely to need efficient distributed query processing. In Distributed Database Systems complete replication consists of maintaining complete copies of the database at each site; this has advantages such as highest locality of reference, highest reliability, availability, and is best for reading. The most promising and dominant data format...
Modern operating systems offer a large array of features in their network subsystems that support fine-grained access control, monitoring and accounting. Such features allow a system administrator to account and filter outgoing network connections based on attributes such as the destination IP address and port number of the connection. With the increase in multi-user systems such as grid networks...
Continued growth in peer-to-peer (P2P) networking is introducing new challenges for network designers and administrators. P2P communication is no longer the sole domain of the home-based, technically savvy user. Instead, corporations are now starting to investigate the use of P2P communication as a valid technology for distributing data to a large user base. Existing network protocols that support...
The traditional ACID properties for transactions are typically ignored in the Web services environment to ensure an acceptable level of service. However, this common lack of isolation can cause difficulties. We look at ways to reduce these problems but still maintain an acceptable level of service.
Computational neuroscience aims to elucidate the mechanisms of neural information processing and population dynamics, through a methodology of incorporating biological data into complex mathematical models. Existing simulation environments model at a particular level of detail; none allow a multi-level approach to neural modelling. Moreover, most are not engineered to produce compute-efficient solutions,...
