Embracing service-oriented architectures in the context of large systems, such as the Web, rises a set of new and challenging issues: increased size and load in terms of users and...
We study stochastic models to mitigate the risk of poor Quality-of-Service (QoS) in computational markets. Consumers who purchase services expect both price and performance guaran...
The explosion of data in the biological community demands the development of more scalable and flexible portals for bioinformatic computation. To address this need, we put forth c...
