Online auction systems have made remarkable progress in recent years. However, one of the most severe and persistent problems in such systems is shilling behavior, which is a type ...
The software architecture of a distributed program can be represented by a hierarchical composition of subsystems, with interacting processes at the leaves of the hierarchy. Compo...

This paper describes an approach to carry out performance analysis on systems which combine two major characteristics: real-time behaviour and parallel computational structure. It ...
This paper studies parallel job scheduling in a distributed system. A simulation model is used to address performance issues associated with scheduling. Five policies are used to ...
