This paper presents a precise market model for a well-defined class of distributed configuration design problems. Given a design problem, the model defines a computational economy...
A Reconfigurable Consistency Algorithm (RCA) is an algorithm that guarantees the consistency in Distributed Shared Memory (DSM) Systems. In a RCA, there is a Configuration Control...
We are witnessing an explosive increase in the complexity of the information systems we rely upon. Autonomic systems address this challenge by continuously configuring and tuning ...
