Information integration applications, such as mediators or mashups, that require access to information resources currently rely on users manually discovering and integrating them ...
In this paper we analyse the requirements of performing parallel transaction-oriented simulations within loosely coupled systems like Ad Hoc Grids. We focus especially on the spac...
—In the analysis of large random wireless networks, the underlying node distribution is almost ubiquitously assumed to be the homogeneous Poisson point process. In this paper, th...
Deployment of distributed applications on large systems, and especially on grid infrastructures, becomes a more and more complex task. Grid users spend a lot of time to prepare, in...
Classically, communication systems are designed assuming perfect channel state information at the receiver and/or transmitter. However, in many practical situations, only an estim...
