- Load balancing is a crucial issue in parallel and distributed systems to ensure fast processing and optimum utilization of computing resources. Load balancing strategies try to e...
The software industry is increasingly facing the issues of understanding and maintaining a particular type of software systems, namely distributed systems. While these systems are...
In this paper, we present our approach of facilitator that allows automatic service composition in distributed systems. We propose a facilitator based on ontologies and knowledge ...
To ease the implementation of distributed objectoriented systems we developed the PDC technique (Proxy/ Dispatcher/Collocutor technique), a simple and pragmatic approach to allow ...
In logistics of today's economy we have to deal with distributed systems. To support the demanding management task the multi-agent approach offers promising perspectives. For ...
We advocate an approach towards the characterisation of components where their qualifications are deduced systematically from a small set of elementary assumptions. Using the chara...
: Middleware technologies such as CORBA and DCOM have been developed as a means of tackling heterogeneity and complexity problems inherent in distributed systems. However, more wor...
The growing number of mobile computing devices with diverse characteristics creates a requirement for seamless (device independent) access to computing resources of distributed sy...
This paper describes the implementation of an enforcement module for file system security implemented as part of a security architecture for distributed systems which enforces a c...
We present a deadlock avoidance algorithm for distributed systems that guarantees liveness. Deadlock avoidance in distributed systems is a hard problem and general solutions are c...
