This paper describes a simulation tool for the analysis of complex jobs described in the form of task graphs. The simulation procedure relies on the PN-based topological represent...
A modification of the standard Simulated Annealing (SA) algorithm is presented for finding the global minimum of a continuous multidimensional, multimodal function. We report resu...
Mobile clients retrieve and update databases at servers. They use transactions in order to ensure the consistency of shared data in the presence of concurrent accesses. Transactio...
