Name services for mobile ad hoc networks are essential to discover and bind resources given by their name or URI to a specific network address. As there is no fixed infrastructure...
Context-aware applications rely on the ability to perceive the state of the surrounding environment. In this paper, we address a class of such applications where real-time guarant...
Clusters of SMPs are becoming increasingly common. However, the shared memory design of SMPs and the consequential contention between system processors for access to main memory c...
We consider the problem of energy minimization for periodic preemptive hard real-time tasks that are scheduled on an identical multiprocessor platform with dynamic voltage scaling...
Abstract— For resource management in Grid environments, advance reservations turned out to be very useful and hence are supported by a variety of Grid toolkits. However, failure ...
