With the rapid development of broadband applications, the capability of networks to provide quality of service (QoS) has become an important issue. Fair scheduling algorithms are ...
Despite many years of research, fair queuing still faces a number of implementation challenges in high speed routers. In particular, in spite of proposals such as DiffServ, the st...
Grid computing has become very popular in big and widespread scientific communities with high computing demands, like high energy physics. Computing resources are being distribute...

To address coordination and complexity issues, we formulate a grid task allocation problem as a bargaining based self-adaptive auction and propose the BarSAA grid task-bundle alloc...
