A cellular automaton (CA) is a parallel synchronous computing model, which consists in a juxtaposition of finite automata (cells) whose state evolves according to that of their ne...
The existence of good probabilistic models for the job arrival process and the delay components introduced at the different stages of job processing in a Grid environment is impor...
Desktop grids have traditionally focused on executing computation intensive workloads. Can they also be used to execute data-intensive workloads? To answer this question, we prese...

This paper presents a very efficient SLAM algorithm that works by hierarchically dividing the map into local regions and subregions. At each level of the hierarchy each region stor...
Context-aware computing in location-aware environments demands the combination of real world position with a computational world model to infer context. We present a novel approach...
