Abstract

The growth of online Internet services during the past decade has increased the demand for scalable and dependable distributed computing systems. E-commerce and online stock trading systems are examples. These systems concurrently serve many clients that transmit a large, often "bursty," number of requests and have stringent quality of service requirements. To protect hardware investments and avoid overcomitting resources, such systems scale incrementally by connecting servers through high-speed networks.
