Social Networks Meet Distributed Systems
Towards a Robust Sybil Defense under Churn
This paper examines the impact of heavy churn on the robustness of decentralized social network-based Sybil defense (SNSD) schemes. Our analysis reveals that (i) heavy churn disintegrates the social overlay network that is fundamental to these schemes into multiple disconnected c

Fully Distributed Sharing-Ratio Enforcement in BitTorrent
Peer-to-peer (p2p ) file sharing systems rely on the sharing of resources by large fractions of partic- ipants. Sharing-ratio enforcement provides a very strong incentive for peers to contribute, leading to a higher performance for all peers in the system. One way of implementin

Can Portability Improve Performance?
An Empirical Study of Parallel Graph Analytics
Due to increasingly large datasets, graph analytics - traversals, all-pairs shortest path computations, centrality measures, etc. - are becoming the focus of high-performance computing (HPC). Because HPC is currently dominated by many-core architectures (both CPUs and GPUs), new

Abstract
Seamless video streaming over wireless links imposes strong demands on video codecs and the underlying network. It is not sufficient that only the video codec or only the radio adapts to changes in the wireless link quality; efforts should be applied in both layers, and

Graphs are a ubiquitous concept used for modeling entities and their relationships. Large graphs, present in a variety of domains, are often fundamentally difficult to process because of sheer size and irregular computation structure. In recent years, both academia and industry h

It is possible to reduce the computation time of data parallel programs by dividing the computation work among different threads and executing them on multiple compute cores. Some data parallel programs are functionally correct only when they are solved with a specific number of

Microprocessors are used in an expanding range of applications from small embedded system devices to supercomputers and mainframes. Moreover, embedded microprocessor based systems became essential in modern societies. Depending on the application domain, embedded systems have to
