Data Grids provide transparent access to heterogeneous and autonomous data resources. The main contribution of this paper is the presentation of a data sharing system that (i) is ...
The Virtual Interface Architecture (VIA) is an industry standard user-level communication architecture for system area networks. The VIA provides a protected, directlyaccessible i...
We present SQUIRREL, a stream-oriented programming framework for storage-centric sensor networks. The storagecentric paradigm—where storage operations prevail over communication...
