An eXtensible Markup Language (XML) based data model for the Global Geodynamics Project (GGP) has been previously developed. Mindful of the need to incorporate metadata into the d...
The complexity of Grid environments is growing as more projects and applications appear in this quick-evolving domain. Widespread applications are distributed over thousands of com...

In mobile ad hoc networks, synchronous communication mechanisms appear to be not suitable, since these assume that the involved entities are present at the same time during the in...
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...
One of the most difficult problems to be solved by metacomputing systems is to ensure strong authentication and authorization. The problem is complicated since the hosts involved ...
