We consider the problem of scheduling tasks with unpredictable service times on distinct processing nodes so as to meet a real-time deadline, given that all communication among no...
Modern computational science applications are becoming increasingly multi-disciplinaty involving widely distributed research teams and their underlying computational platforms. A ...

We investigate the problem of sleep/wake scheduling for low duty cycle sensor networks. Our work differs from prior work in that we explicitly consider the effect of synchronizati...
An increasing number of applications are being developed using distributed object computing (DOC) middleware, such as CORBA. Many of these applications require the underlying midd...
