: The development of complex access control architectures raises the problem of their management. In this article, we describe an architecture providing packet filters configuratio...
The aim of the paper is to introduce general techniques in order to optimize the parallel execution time of sorting on a distributed architectures with processors of various speeds...
The popularity of distributed file systems continues to grow in last years. The reasons they are preferred over traditional centralized systems include fault tolerance, availabili...
: This paper shows how the Asynchronous Backtracking (Yokoo et al., 1998) algorithm, a well known distributed constraint satisfaction algorithm, produces unnecessary messages and i...
In this work we are interested in the problem of scheduling and redistributing data on master-slave platforms. We consider the case were the workers possess initial loads, some of...
