As distributed surveillance networks are deployed over larger areas and in increasingly busy environments, limiting the computation, bandwidth, and human attention burdens imposed...
Data Grids have been adopted as the next-generation platform by many scientific communities that need to share, access, transport, process and manage large data collections distri...
In this paper, we propose a novel multi-point video conferencing system through error-prone channels, where the aggregation of multiple video streams and resource allocation are p...
This paper presents a precise market model for a well-defined class of distributed configuration design problems. Given a design problem, the model defines a computational economy...
We describe a scheduler based on the microeconomic paradigm for scheduling on-line a set of parallel jobs in a multiprocessor system. In addition to increasing the system throughpu...
