Refal on Server Side

Aspectizing Server-Side Distribution

We discuss how a collection of domain-specific and domain-independent tools can be combined to “aspectize” the distributed character of server-side applications, to a much greater extent than with prior efforts. Specifically, we present a framework that can be used with a large class of unaware applications to turn their objects into distributed objects with minimal programming effort. Our fram...

Augmented Compression for Server-Side Rendering

In this work we recall attention to problems that arise in a client-server setting with server-side rendering and propose a practical method for accelerated high-quality render-stream compression on the server. Server-side rendering is gaining importance for three main reasons: On the one hand great differences in quality and performance of client’s systems (ranging from PDAs to high-end workst...

Detection of Server-side Web Attacks

Web servers and server-side applications constitute the key components of modern Internet services. We present a pattern recognition system to the detection of intrusion attempts that target such components. Our system is anomaly-based, i.e., we model the normal (legitimate) traffic and intrusion attempts are identified as anomalous traffic. In order to address the presence of attacks (noise) i...

Server-Side Parallel Data Reduction and Analysis

Geoscience analysis is currently limited by cumbersome access and manipulation of large datasets from remote sources. Due to their data-heavy and compute-light nature, these analysis workloads represent a class of applications unsuited to a computational grid optimized for compute-intensive applications. We present the Script Workflow Analysis for MultiProcessing (SWAMP) system, which relocates...
