The efficiency of service discovery is critical in the development of fully decentralized middleware intended to manage large scale computational grids. This demand influenced t...
Abstract. The BGP protocol is at the core of the routing infrastructure of the Internet. Across years, BGP has proved to be very stable for its purpose. However, there have been so...

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...
Single sign-on is critical for the usability of distributed systems. While there are several authentication mechanisms which support single sign-on (e.g. Kerberos and X.509), it m...
Identifying small groups of lines, whose removal would cause a severe blackout, is critical for the secure operation of the electric power grid. We show how power grid vulnerabilit...
