Total Order Broadcast protocols are important tools to ensure coherence across distributed systems. Contrarily to classical distributed systems, pervasive systems bring important ...
Every computer needs a timer mechanism to keep track of current time and also for various accounting purposes such as calculating the time spent by a process in CPU utilization, di...
Peer-to-peer (P2P) computing offers new opportunities for building highly distributed data systems. Unlike client-server computing, P2P can operate without central coordination and...
Load balancing is a critical issue for the efficient operation of peerto-peer networks. We give two new load-balancing protocols whose provable performance guarantees are within a...
This paper deals with a novel, distributed, QoS-aware, peer-topeer checkpointing arrangement component for mobile Grid (MoG) computing systems middleware. Checkpointing is more cr...
