While resource management and task scheduling are identified challenges of Grid computing, current Grid scheduling systems mainly focus on CPU and network availability. Recent per...
A computational grid is a wide-area computing environment for cross-domain resource sharing and service integration. Resource management and load balancing are key concerns when i...
Abstract. Network-server architecture has become a de-facto standard for Distributed Virtual Environment (DVE) systems. In these systems, a large set of remote users share a 3D vir...
Emerging Web services standards enable the development of large-scale applications in open environments. In particular, they enable services to be dynamically bound. However, curr...
In this paper we present a macroscopic model for the analysis of homogeneous task-directed multi-robot systems (MRS). The model is used to compute the probability that a given MRS ...
