Distributed computations, dealing with large amounts of data, are scheduled in Grid clusters today using either a task-centric mechanism, or a worker-centric mechanism. Because of ...
Large distributed Grid systems pose new challenges in job scheduling due to complex workload characteristics and system characteristics. Due to the numerous parameters that must b...
— We study hybrid search schemes for unstructured peer-to-peer networks. We quantify performance in terms of number of hits, network overhead, and response time. Our schemes comb...
Until practical ad-hoc localization systems are developed, early deployments of wireless sensor networks will manually configure location information in network nodes in order to...
The need for sharing is well known in a large number of distributed collaborative applications. These applications are difficult to develop for wide area (possibly mobile) networ...
