Retrieving the resource identified by a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) [1] is only one of the operations that can be performed on a URI. One might also ask for and get a list of other identifiers that are aliases for the original URI or a bibliographic description of the resource the URI denotes, for example. This applies to both Uniform Resource Names (URNs) and Uniform Resource Locators (U...

In this paper, we describe three contributions for distributed resource allocation in scientiic applications. First, we present an abstract model in which diierent resources are represented as tokens of diierent colors; in this model, processes acquire resources by acquiring tokens of appropriate colors. Second, we present distributed scheduling algorithms that allow multiple resource managers ...

In distributed services shared by multiple tenants, managing resource allocation is an important pre-requisite to providing dependability and quality of service guarantees. Many systems deployed today experience contention, slowdown, and even system outages due to aggressive tenants and a lack of resource management. Improperly throttled background tasks, such as data replication, can overwhelm...
