Long running applications often need to adapt due to changing requirements or changing environment. Typically, such adaptation is performed by dynamically adding or removing compo...
A dynamic time delay model for load balancing was proposed in distributed heterogeneous system by Hayat. But how to compute the load-transfer delay and the gain coefficient were n...
Abstract. In order to effectively and quickly answer queries in environments with distributed RDF/OWL, we present a query optimization algorithm to identify the potentially relevan...
' An efficient assignment of tasks to the processors is imperative for achieving a fast job turnaround time in a parallel or distributed enviornment. The assignment problem is...
A new approach to the configuration and operation of electrical distribution networks is proposed. Traditionally, the medium-voltage part of the electrical grid is operated in a c...
