Data futures in a metacomputing system refer to data products that have not yet been created but which can be uniquely named and manipulated. We employ data flow mechanisms expres...
To deal with the frequent, foreseeable and variable disconnections that occur in a mobile environment, we introduce a exible, two-level consistency model. Semantically related or ...
Abstract. We study the problem of dynamic load-balancing on hierarchical platforms. In particular, we consider applications involving heavy communications on a distributed platform...
