Mobile agents are programs that can migrate from machine to machine in a heterogeneous, partially disconnected network. As mobile agents move across a network, they consume resour...
A consistency protocol can be termed symmetric if all processors are treated identically when they access common resources. By contrast, asymmetric protocols usually assign a home...
—A fundamental challenge of managing mutable data replication in a Peer-to-Peer (P2P) system is how to efficiently maintain consistency under various sharing patterns with heter...
Abstract-- Solving complex real-world problems using evolutionary computation is a CPU time-consuming task that requires a large amount of computational resources. Peerto-Peer (P2P...
We present the results of a feasibility study using shared, existing, network-accessible infrastructure for repository replication. We utilize the SMTP and NNTP protocols to replic...
