An important technical hurdle blocking the adoption of mobile agent technology is the lack of reliability. Designing a reliable mobile agent system is especially challenging since...
Abstract. This paper describes a scheme of manipulating (partial) continuations in imperative languages such as Java and C++ in a portable manner, where the portability means that ...
Fine-Grained Cycle Sharing (FGCS) systems aim at utilizing the large amount of idle computational resources available on the Internet. Such systems allow guest jobs to run on a ho...
As computational clusters increase in size, their mean-time-to-failure reduces. Typically checkpointing is used to minimize the loss of computation. Most checkpointing techniques, ...
