Grid computing systems pool together the resources of many workstations to create a virtual computing reservoir. Users can "draw" resources using a pay-as-you-go model, c...
This paper presents the Esperanto Broker, a communication platform for nomadic computing applications. By using this broker, developers can model application components as a set of...
This paper describes an efficient algorithm for computing the distance between non-convex objects. Objects are modeled as the union of a set of convex components. From this model ...
We consider the optimal computing budget allocation (OCBA) problem where the simulated designs are correlated. The exact optimal allocation is presented for two designs, and an ap...
