We introduce a solution for a concurrency control problem which is frequently encountered in practice: in a dynamic system we want that the load on a centralized resource is uniformly distributed among users, offering a predictable performance as long as it is not overloaded. We propose an original solution based on probabilistic assumptions, and we comment early experimental results.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
