The design of a process migration mechanism for the Amoeba distributed operating system is described. The primary motivation for this implementation is to carry out experimental a...
Informed prefetching provides a simple mechanism for I/O-intensive, cache-ineffective applications to efficiently exploit highly-parallel I/O subsystems such as disk arrays. This ...
We address the requirements and design of bandwidth on demand networks in the context of grid services. Regardless of the deployment scenario for grid services (e.g., commercial o...
This paper is concerned with a fixed-size population of autonomous agents facing unknown, possibly changing, environments. The motivation is to design an embodied evolutionary algo...
: This paper proposes a constraint programming based approach to handle ontologies consistency, and more precisely user-defined consistencies. In practice, ontologies consistency i...
