In this paper we analyse the requirements of performing parallel transaction-oriented simulations within loosely coupled systems like Ad Hoc Grids. We focus especially on the spac...
Heterogeneity has been considered in scheduling, but without taking into account the temporal variation of completion times of the sub-tasks for a divisible, independent task. In ...
– Anonymous communication systems built on P2P infrastructures using anonymity forwarders are frequently affected by the churn problem, i.e. frequent joins and leaves of nodes. T...
Resource location (or discovery) is a fundamental service for resource-sharing environments: given desired resource attributes, the service returns locations of matching resources....
Many optimization techniques have been adopted for efficient job scheduling in grid computing, such as: genetic algorithms, simulated annealing and stochastic methods. Such techni...
