Scalable XML Collaborative Editing with Undo short paper
Commutative Replicated Data-Type (CRDT) is a new class of algorithms that
ensures scalable consistency of replicated data. It has been successfully
applied to collaborative editing of texts without complex concurrency control.
In this paper, we present a CRDT to edit XML data. Compared to existing
approaches for XML collaborative editing, our approach is more scalable and
handles all the XML editing aspects : elements, contents, attributes and undo.
Indeed, undo is recognized as an important feature for collaborative editing
that allows to overcome system complexity through error recovery or
collaborative conflict resolution
A Literature Survey of Cooperative Caching in Content Distribution Networks
Content distribution networks (CDNs) which serve to deliver web objects
(e.g., documents, applications, music and video, etc.) have seen tremendous
growth since its emergence. To minimize the retrieving delay experienced by a
user with a request for a web object, caching strategies are often applied -
contents are replicated at edges of the network which is closer to the user
such that the network distance between the user and the object is reduced. In
this literature survey, evolution of caching is studied. A recent research
paper [15] in the field of large-scale caching for CDN was chosen to be the
anchor paper which serves as a guide to the topic. Research studies after and
relevant to the anchor paper are also analyzed to better evaluate the
statements and results of the anchor paper and more importantly, to obtain an
unbiased view of the large scale collaborate caching systems as a whole.Comment: 5 pages, 5 figure
