This paper applies a new traffic model, iterated function systems (IFS) for network traffic modelling, to explore computer network behaviour and analyse network performance. IFS mo...
Load balance is a critical issue in distributed systems, such as server grids. In this paper, we propose a Balanced Load Queue (BLQ) model, which combines the queuing theory and hy...
There is a rapidly growing set of applications, referred to as data driven applications, in which analysis of large amounts of data drives the next steps taken by the scientist, e...
With the advent of web services standards and a serviceoriented Grid architecture, it is foreseeable that competing as well as complimenting computational services will proliferat...
