Distributed computations, dealing with large amounts of data, are scheduled in Grid clusters today using either a task-centric mechanism, or a worker-centric mechanism. Because of ...
A key emerging and popular communication paradigm, primarily employed for information dissemination, is peer-to-peer (P2P) networking. In this paper, we model the spread of malwar...
Cooperative checkpointing, in which the system dynamically skips checkpoints requested by applications at runtime, can exploit system-level information to improve performance and ...
In this paper, we consider filtering false reports in braided multipath routing sensor networks. While multipath routing provides better resilience to various faults in sensor ne...
Mega grids span several continents and may consist of millions of nodes and billions of tasks executing at any point in time. This setup calls for scalable and highly available re...
