Distributed scheduling algorithms for wireless ad hoc networks have received substantial attention over the last decade. The complexity levels of these algorithms span a wide spec...
Efficient and robust metacomputing requires the decomposition of complex jobs into tasks that must be scheduled on distributed processing nodes. There are various ways of creating...
As mobile devices, such as laptops, PDAs or mobile phones, are getting more and more ubiquitous and are able to communicate with each other via wireless technologies, the paradigm...
Peer-to-peer Data Networks (PDNs) are large-scale, selforganizing, distributed query processing systems. Familiar examples of PDN are peer-to-peer file-sharing networks, which su...
