This paper presents a specific contracting algorithm that contributes to the process of distributed planning and resource allocation in competitive, semi-trusted environments. The ...
This paper analyses alternatives for the parallelization of the Simulated Annealing algorithm when applied to the placement of modules in a VLSI circuit considering the use of PVM...
We present an algorithm for scheduling distributed data intensive Bag-of-Task applications on Data Grids that have costs associated with requesting, transferring and processing da...
Size and complexity of data repositories collaboratively created by Web users generate a need for new processing approaches. In this paper, we study the problem of detection of ï¬...
