We propose a parallel and distributed component framework for building Grid applications, adapted to the hierarchical, highly distributed, highly heterogeneous nature of Grids. Thi...
In this paper we develop a methodology for treating the problem of scheduling partially-ordered tasks on parallel machines. Our framework is based on the timed automaton model, or...
This paper explores the idea that future game consoles and computers may no longer be single processor units, but instead symmetrical multiprocessor units. If this were to occur g...
The paper presents a general model for persistent replicated object management and identifies what meta information about objects needs to be maintained by a naming and binding se...

We develop a novel framework for supporting e-Science applications that require streaming of information between sites. Using a Synchronous Dataflow (SDF) model, our framework inco...
