One of the main challenges in Grid computing is efficient allocation of resources (CPU-hours, network bandwidth, etc.) to the tasks submitted by users. Due to the lack of centrali...
This paper focuses on peer-to-peer storage systems that achieve availability through replication. We study the problem of resource allocation when the system must replicate multip...
We present two classes of distributed algorithms called DRBA and DOBA, for decentralized, proactive resource allocation in asynchronous real-time distributed systems. The objectiv...
Abstract--This research investigates the problem of robust dynamic resource allocation for heterogeneous distributed computing systems operating under imposed constraints. Often, s...
