Web Services are becoming more and more fundamental building blocks of Web-based distributed applications and a core technology for Grid systems. Due to their flexibility, Web Ser...
We consider networks of workstations which are not only timesharing, but also heterogeneous with a large variation in the computing power and memory capacities of different workst...
In this paper, we present a performance evaluation of a wide-area cluster system based on a rewallenabled Globus metacomputing toolkit. In order to establish communication links ...
The trend in microprocessor design toward multicore and manycore processors means that future performance gains in software will largely come from harnessing parallelism. To reali...
In this paper we present 411, a password distribution system for high performance environments that provides security and scalability. We show that existing solutions such as NIS ...
