Serverless Network File Systems
- ACM TRANSACTIONS ON COMPUTER SYSTEMS
, 1995
"... In this paper, we propose a new paradigm for network file system design, serverless network file systems. While traditional network file systems rely on a central server machine, a serverless system utilizes workstations cooperating as peers to provide all file system services. Any machine in the sy ..."

. For instance, in a 32-node xFS system with 32 active clients, each client receives nearly as much read or write throughput as it would see if it were the only active client.
Web Server Workload Characterization: The Search for Invariants (Extended Version)
, 1996
"... The phenomenal growth in popularity of the World Wide Web (WWW, or the Web) has made WWW traffic the largest contributor to packet and byte traffic on the NSFNET backbone. This growth has triggered recent research aimed at reducing the volume of network traffic produced by Web clients and servers, b ..."

Disseminating Active Map Information to Mobile Hosts
, 1994
"... Mobile computing differs from desk-top computing because of the dynamic nature of system state: as users move, the sets of stationary and mobile objects they control and the types of information they wish to access change. Navigating a mobile environment can be aided by active maps that describe ..."

the location and characteristics of objects within some region as they change over time. We describe an active map service that keeps clients informed of changes in their environment. The primary issue driving our design is the question of scale: an active map service must be able to handle updates

"... In the mitochondrial pathway of apoptosis, caspase activation is closely linked to mitochondrial outer membrane permeabilization (MOMP). Numerous pro-apoptotic signal-transducing molecules and pathological stimuli converge on mitochondria to induce MOMP. The local regulation and execution of MOMP in ..."

Using Active Clients to Minimize Replication in Primary-Backup Protocols
- Proceedings, 1996 IEEE Fifteenth Annual International Phoenix Conference on Computers and Communications
, 1996
"... We consider the primary backup-approach for providing fault-tolerant services in a distributed system. In this approach, a fault-tolerant service is implemented using a collection of servers. One of the servers functions as the primary while the others function as backups. Clients send their service ..."

Feasibility of a Serverless Distributed File System Deployed on an Existing Set of Desktop PCs
- Proc. ACM SIGMETRICS
, 2000
"... We consider an architecture for a serverless distributed file system that does not assume mutual trust among the client computers. The system provides security, availability, and reliability by distributing multiple encrypted replicas of each file among the client machines. To assess the feasibility ..."

the feasibility of deploying this system on an existing desktop infrastructure, we measure and analyze a large set of client machines in a commercial environment. In particular, we measure and report results on disk usage and content; file activity; and machine uptimes, lifetimes, and loads. We conclude
Personalizing search via automated analysis of interests and activities
, 2005
"... We formulate and study search algorithms that consider a user’s prior interactions with a wide variety of content to personalize that user’s current Web search. Rather than relying on the unrealistic assumption that people will precisely specify their intent when searching, we pursue techniques that ..."
