: Middleware technologies such as CORBA and DCOM have been developed as a means of tackling heterogeneity and complexity problems inherent in distributed systems. However, more wor...
An agent with limited consumable execution resources needs policies that attempt to achieve good performance while respecting these limitations. Otherwise, an agent (such as a pla...
Many of today's complex computer applications are being modeled and constructed using the principles inherent to real-time distributed object systems. In response to this dem...
This paper presents a novel approach for resource finding and job allocation in a computational Grid. The proposed system is called HYGRA, for HYperspace-based Grid Resource Alloca...
