Computational Grids are large scale computing system composed of geographically distributed resources (computers, storage etc.) owned by self interested agents or organizations. T...
In this paper, a model is proposed for multi-agent probabilistic reasoning in a distributed environment. Unlike other methods, this model is capable of processing input in a truly...
Open distributed systems are typically composed by an unknown number of processes running in heterogeneous hosts. Their communication often requires tolerance to temporary disconn...
