We propose a novel alternative to application-level overlays called VIOLIN, or Virtual Internetworking on OverLay INfrastructure. Inspired by recent advances in virtual machines, ...
Given current complexity of Grid technologies, the lack of security of P2P systems and the rigidity of VPN technologies make sharing resources belonging to different institutions s...
We propose a method to reuse unmodified device drivers and to improve system dependability using virtual machines. We run the unmodified device driver, with its original operating...
Emerging Cloud computing infrastructures provide computing resources on demand based on postpaid principles. For example, the RESERVOIR project develops an infrastructure capable o...
High performance application development remains challenging, particularly for scientists making the transition to a Grid environment. In general areas of computing, virtual envir...
