Within the realms of workflow management and grid computing, scheduling of distributed services is a central issue. Most schedulers balance time and cost to fit within a client...
Internal switches in all-photonic networks do not perform data conversion into the electronic domain, thereby eliminating a potential capacity bottleneck, but the inability to per...
Abstract— In this paper, we analyze the throughput of interconnection networks, viewed as multi-stage queueing networks with infinite input queues, but finite internal cross-st...
Abstract. Recent developments in computer and communication networks require scheduling decisions to be made under increasingly complex system dynamics. We model and analyze the pr...
There is considerable interest in developing runtime infrastructures for programs that can migrate from one host to another. Mobile programs are appealing because they support ef...
