Previous work on scheduling dynamic competitive jobs is focused on multiprocessors configurations. This paper presents a new distributed dynamic scheduling scheme for sporadic re...
Scheduling divisible loads in distributed systems is the subject of Divisible Load Theory (DLT). In this paper we show that coalitional game theory is a natural fit for modeling ...
A cooperative structured peer-to-peer file-sharing system requires that the nodes participating in the system need to maintain the location mappings of other nodes. However, the s...
Abstract. Ontologies can be used for e-business integration, for example by describing existing e-business standards as ontologies. If cooperating parties use different ontologies...
Fault-tolerant time-triggered communication relies on the synchronization of local clocks. The startup problem is the problem of reaching a sufficient degree of synchronization a...
