The majority of the world's population does not have any or adequate Internet access. This implies that the Internet cannot provide universal service, reaching everyone without discrimination. Global access to the Internet ...
Vieira Zacarias, Felippe (Date of defense: 2023-10-09)
(English) In a typical HPC cluster system, a node is the elemental component unit of this architecture. Memory and compute resources are tightly coupled in each node and the rigid boundaries between nodes limits compute ...
Nguyen, Jennifer (Date of defense: 2019-11-08)
People recommender systems (PRS) are a special type of RS. They are often adopted to identify people capable of performing a task. Recommending people poses several challenges not exhibited in traditional RS. Elements such ...
Mestres Sugrañes, Albert (Date of defense: 2017-12-12)
The research community has considered in the past the application of Machine Learning (ML) techniques to control and operate networks. A notable example is the Knowledge Plane proposed by D.Clark et al. However, such ...
Peredo Andrade, Oscar Francisco (Date of defense: 2022-06-09)
Classical geostatistical methods are based on the hypothesis of stationarity, which allows to apply repetitive sampling in different locations of the spatial domain, in order to obtain enough information to infer cumulative ...
Buchaca Prats, David (Date of defense: 2021-01-14)
In recent years there has been an extraordinary growth of the demand of Cloud Computing resources executed in Data Centers. Modern Data Centers are complex systems that need management. As distributed computing systems ...
Call Barreiro, Aaron (Date of defense: 2022-11-07)
(English) Traditional data centers consist of computing nodes that possess all the resources physically attached. When there was the need to deal with more significant demands, the solution has been to either add more nodes ...
Almasan Puscas, Felician Paul (Date of defense: 2023-07-17)
(English) In recent years, several industry sectors have adapted the Digital Twin (DT) paradigm to improve the performance of physical systems. This paradigm consists of leveraging computational methods to build high-fidelity ...
De la Cruz, Raúl (Date of defense: 2015-11-30)
