One of the challenges in large scale distributed computing is to utilize the thousands of idle personal computers. In this paper, we present a system that enables users to e ortles...
In this paper, we discuss two major tradeoffs, spatial and temporal tradeoffs, that appear when applying marketbased computing to multimedia network applications. The former appea...
In this paper, a market-based decomposition method for decomposable linear systems is developed. The solution process iterates between a master problem that solves the market-matc...
This work describes a system that allocates end-to-end bandwidth, in a switched meshed communications network. The solution makes use of market-based software agents that compete ...
