We define CWS, a non-preemptive scheduling policy for workloads with correlated job sizes. CWS tackles the scheduling problem by inferring the expected sizes of upcoming jobs bas...
—Some current and future pervasive data driven applications must operate in ”extreme” environments where endto-end connectivity cannot be guaranteed at all times. In fact, it...
Peer-to-Peer systems are based on the concept of resources localization and mutualization in dynamic context. In specific environment such as mobile networks, characterized by high...
We propose a biologically inspired and fully-decentralized approach to the organization of computation that is based on the autonomous scheduling of strongly mobile agents on a pe...

Assigning tasks to agents is complex, especially in highly dynamic environments. Typical protocol-based approaches for task assignment such as Contract Net have proven their value...
