We introduce FTRepMI, a simple fault-tolerant protocol for providing sequential consistency amongst replicated objects in a grid, without using any centralized components. FTRepMI ...
Scientific applications often involve computation intensive workflows and may generate large amount of derived data. In this paper we consider a life cycle, which starts when the ...
In this paper, we introduce the combinatorial auction model for resource management in grids. We propose a combinatorial auction-based resource allocation protocol in which a user...
An instance-oriented security mechanism is proposed to deal with security threats in building a general-purpose mobile agent middleware in Grid environment. The proposed solution i...
A new approach is proposed to generate workflow scenarios of scientific applications such as Molecular Dynamics and Monte-Carlo simulations in a distributed environment. The approa...
