A Low-Cost Multi-Failure Resilient Replication Scheme for High-Data Availability in Cloud Storage
IEEE2020 Data availability is one of the most important performance factors in cloud storage systems. To enhance data availability, replication is a common approach to handle the machine failures. However, previously proposed replication schemes cannot effectively handle both correlated and non-correlated machine failures, especially while increasing the data availability with limited resources.
A computational framework for social-media-based business analytics and knowledge creation: empirical studies of CyTraSS
Enterprise Information Systems2020 Social media (SM) platforms greatly facilitate business information sharing, customer relationship building, and client emotion expression. However, managing knowledge acquired from SM messages is challenged by limited human cognitive capability.
Rockstar Effect in Distributed Project Management on GitHub Social Networks
Proceedings of the 2019 Pre-Icis Sigdsa Symposium2020 The internet has become increasingly social, opening up new space for online collaboration and distributed project management. Decentralized management techniques such as open-source software, distributed development, and software-as-a-service allow software developers to easily connect online and to solve complex problems collaboratively.
Efficient parameter selection for support vector machines
Enterprise Information Systems2019 The support vector machines (SVM) is a popular classification method. Many users may not well tune hyperparameters because this step is time-consuming. However, the performance of SVM relies on the values of hyperparameters.
CrossSimON: A Novel Probabilistic Approach to Cross-Platform Online Social Network Simulation
IEEE2019 The increasing popularity and diversity of online social networks (OSNs) have attracted more and more people to participate in multiple OSNs. Learning users' behavior and information diffusion across platforms is critical for cyber threat detection, but it is still a challenge due to the surge of users participating in multiple social platforms.
