Web applications and data: achieving abstraction and scalability

Abstraction, Federation, and Scalability

Achieving Scalability and Security in Publish-Subscribe Web Services

Scalability in Internet-scale distributed systems can be achieved through the publish-subscribe communication paradigm. In publish-subscribe systems, interacting parties communicate asynchronously, possibly connected at different times and possibly without knowledge of each other’s identity. Though this decoupling promotes scalability, it presents significant challenges to a security model. Sec...

Increasing the Scalability of Data-intensive Web Applications

Data-intensive Web applications are becoming increasingly popular and represent the future landscape of Web applications. Currently there is no effective way to increase the scalability of such applications without significant investment in infrastructure and in-house management capability. In this thesis we present two ways to scale such applications that only rely on the knowledge of the appl...

Increasing the Scalability of Dynamic Web Applications

The continued growth of the Web and its increasing role in our daily life has created new technical and social challenges. On the technical side, applications deployed on the Internet suffer from unpredictable load, especially due to events such as breaking news (e.g., Hurricane Katrina) and sudden popularity spikes (e.g., the “Slashdot Effect”). A large number of these Web applications increas...
