The idle computers on a local area, campus area, or even wide area network represent a significant computational resource--one that is, however, also unreliable, heterogeneous, an...
A reasonable end-to-end reliability guarantee for three-tier systems, called e-Transaction (exactly-once Transaction), has been recently proposed. This work presents a lightweight ...
—We propose a new multi-hop routing protocol for wireless sensor networks, suited for monitoring and control applications. The aim of this research is to adapt flat and hierarch...
—This paper presents QuoCast, a resource-aware protocol for reliable stream diffusion in unreliable environments, where processes may crash and communication links may lose messa...
This paper is on the construction of a server subsystem in a client/server system in an application context where the number of potential clients can be arbitrarily large. The imp...
