A federated database system (FDBS) is a collection of cooperating database systems that are autonomous and possibly heterogeneous. In this paper, we define a reference architecture for distributed database management systems from system and schema viewpoints and show how various FDBS architectures
Storage management and caching in PAST, a large-scale, persistent peer-to-peer storage utility
, 2001
"... This paper presents and evaluates the storage management and caching in PAST, a large-scale peer-to-peer persistent storage utility. PAST is based on a self-organizing, Internetbased overlay network of storage nodes that cooperatively route file queries, store multiple replicas of files, and cache a ..."

and to balance the query load. We present and evaluate PAST, with an emphasis on its storage management and caching system. Extensive tracedriven experiments show that the system minimizes fetch distance, that it balances the query load for popular files, and that it displays graceful degradation of performance
Generating Representative Web Workloads for Network and Server Performance Evaluation
, 1997
"... One role for workload generation is as a means for understanding how servers and networks respond to variation in load. This enables management and capacity planning based on current and projected usage. This paper applies a number of observations of Web server usage to create a realistic Web worklo ..."

Another Puzzle: The Growth in Actively Managed Mutual Funds”.
- The Journal of Finance,
, 1996
"... Abstract Using genetic algorithm (GA), this study proposes a portfolio optimization scheme for index fund management. Index fund is one of popular strategies in portfolio management that aims at matching the performance of the benchmark index such as the S&P 500 in New York and the FTSE 100 in ..."

When choice is demotivating: can one desire too much of a good thing
- Journal of Personality and Social Psychology
, 2000
"... Current psychological theory and research affirm the positive affective and motivational consequences of having personal choice. These findings have led to the popular notion that the more choice, the better--that the human ability omanage, and the human desire for, choice isunlimited. Findings from ..."

Password Managers: Attacks and Defenses
"... We study the security of popular password managers and their policies on automatically filling in Web passwords. We examine browser built-in password managers, mobile password managers, and 3rd party managers. We observe significant differences in autofill policies among password managers. Several a ..."

on the security these applications provide. This paper presents the first rigorous analysis of storage formats used by popular password managers. We define two realistic security models, designed to represent the capabilities of real-world adversaries. We then show how specific vulnerabilities in our models allow
