Current computing environments are becoming increasingly complex in nature and exhibit unpredictable workloads. These environments create challenges to the design of systems that c...
In many systems, sensors are used to acquire information from external environments such as temperature, pressure and locations. Due to continuous changes in these values, and lim...
The applicability of network-based computing depends on the availability of the underlying network bandwidth. However, network resources are shared and the available network bandw...
In this paper, we propose an architecture for adaptive real-time workflow-based collaborative system. Such a system is needed to support real-time communication and sharing of inf...
We address the problem of highly transient populations in unstructured and loosely-structured peerto-peer systems. We propose a number of illustrative query-related strategies and...
