Grid systems are well-known for its high performance computing or large data storage with inexpensive devices. They can be categorized into two major types: computational grid and ...
—The functional heterogeneity of non-dedicated computational grids will increase with the inclusion of resources from desktop grids, P2P systems, and even mobile grids. Machine f...
Application scheduling studies on large-scale shared resources have advocated the use of resource provisioning in the form of advance reservations for providing predictable and de...
Construction of overlay networks without any consideration of real network topologies causes inefficient routing in peer-to-peer networks. This paper presents the design and evalua...
Environment monitoring in coal mines is an important application of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) that has commercial potential. We discuss the design of a Structure-Aware Self-...
