Service discovery is a key concept in a distributed Grid environment. The first step towards Grid implement is the discovery of services. In this paper, we build a new Grid servic...
Abstract. Lock-free shared data structures in the setting of distributed computing have received a fair amount of attention. Major motivations of lock-free data structures include ...
We investigate issues related to the probe complexity of quorum systems and their implementation in a dynamic environment. Our contribution is twofold. The first regards the algo...
This paper presents a parallel adaptive version of the block-based Gauss-Jordan algorithm used in numerical analysis to invert matrices. This version includes a characterization o...
