The global internet is rich in commodity resources but scarce in specialized resources. We argue that a grid framework can achieve better performance if it separates the management...
We present a simple implementation of a token-based distributed mutual exclusion algorithm for multithreaded systems. Several per-node requests could be issued by threads running ...
Abstract. Genetic algorithms have been a standard technique for engineers optimising water distribution networks for some time. However in recent years there has been an increasing...
Abstract. We consider the problem of delivering real-time, near realtime and stored streaming media to a large number of asynchronous clients. This problem has been studied in the ...
In this paper, we present a novel approach to automatically determine the positions of sensors and actuators in an ad-hoc distributed network of heterogeneous general purpose comp...
