Bigtable: A distributed storage system for structured data
- IN PROCEEDINGS OF THE 7TH CONFERENCE ON USENIX SYMPOSIUM ON OPERATING SYSTEMS DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION - VOLUME 7
, 2006
"... Bigtable is a distributed storage system for managing structured data that is designed to scale to a very large size: petabytes of data across thousands of commodity servers. Many projects at Google store data in Bigtable, including web indexing, Google Earth, and Google Finance. These applications ..."

for all of these Google products. In this paper we describe the simple data model provided by Bigtable, which gives clients dynamic control over data layout and format, and we describe the design and implementation of Bigtable.
Scalable molecular dynamics with NAMD.
- J Comput Chem
, 2005
"... Abstract: NAMD is a parallel molecular dynamics code designed for high-performance simulation of large biomolecular systems. NAMD scales to hundreds of processors on high-end parallel platforms, as well as tens of processors on low-cost commodity clusters, and also runs on individual desktop and la ..."

Token flow control
"... As companies move towards many-core chips, an efficient onchip communication fabric to connect these cores assumes critical importance. To address limitations to wire delay scalability and increasing bandwidth demands, state-of-the-art on-chip networks use a modular packet-switched design with route ..."

/delay. In this work, we propose token flow control (TFC), a flow control mechanism in which nodes in the network send out tokens in their local neighborhood to communicate information about their available resources. These tokens are then used in both routing and flow control: to choose less congested paths
GOLOG: A Logic Programming Language for Dynamic Domains
, 1994
"... This paper proposes a new logic programming language called GOLOG whose interpreter automatically maintains an explicit representation of the dynamic world being modeled, on the basis of user supplied axioms about the preconditions and effects of actions and the initial state of the world. This allo ..."

Information flow and cooperative control of vehicle formations.
- In Proceeings of 15th IFAC Conference,
, 2002
"... Abstract We consider the problem of cooperation among a collection of vehicles performing a shared task using intervehicle communication to coordinate their actions. We apply tools from graph theory to relate the topology of the communication network to formation stability. We prove a Nyquist crite ..."

criterion that uses the eigenvalues of the graph Laplacian matrix to determine the effect of the graph on formation stability. We also propose a method for decentralized information exchange between vehicles. This approach realizes a dynamical system that supplies each vehicle with a common reference
Jflow: Practical mostly-static information flow control.
- In Proceedings of the 26th ACM SIGPLAN-SIGACT symposium on Principles of programming languages,
, 1999
"... Abstract A promising technique for protecting privacy and integrity of sensitive data is to statically check information flow within programs that manipulate the data. While previous work has proposed programming language extensions to allow this static checking, the resulting languages are too res ..."

in previous models: a decentralized label model, label polymorphism, run-time label checking, and automatic label inference. JFlow also supports many language features that have never been integrated successfully with static information flow control, including objects, subclassing, dynamic type tests, access
The dynamic behavior of a data dissemination protocol for network programming at scale
- In Proceedings of the Second International Conferences on Embedded Network Sensor Systems (SenSys
"... To support network programming, we present Deluge, a reliable data dissemination protocol for propagating large data objects from one or more source nodes to many other nodes over a multihop, wireless sensor network. Deluge builds from prior work in density-aware, epidemic maintenance protocols. Usi ..."

. Using both a real-world deployment and simulation, we show that Deluge can reliably disseminate data to all nodes and characterize its overall performance. On Mica2dot nodes, Deluge can push nearly 90 bytes/second, oneninth the maximum transmission rate of the radio supported under TinyOS. Control
Object exchange across heterogeneous information sources
- INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON DATA ENGINEERING
, 1995
"... We address the problem of providing integrated access to diverse and dynamic information sources. We explain how this problem differs from the traditional database integration problem and we focus on one aspect of the information integration problem, namely information exchange. We define an object- ..."

Wide-area cooperative storage with CFS
, 2001
"... The Cooperative File System (CFS) is a new peer-to-peer readonly storage system that provides provable guarantees for the efficiency, robustness, and load-balance of file storage and retrieval. CFS does this with a completely decentralized architecture that can scale to large systems. CFS servers pr ..."

Experience on a globally deployed prototype shows that CFS delivers data to clients as fast as FTP. Controlled tests show
A blueprint for introducing disruptive technology into the internet
, 2002
"... This paper argues that a new class of geographically distributed network services is emerging, and that the most effective way to design, evaluate, and deploy these services is by using an overlay-based testbed. Unlike conventional network testbeds, however, we advocate an approach that supports bot ..."
