As shown in [7], optimal control problems with either ODE or PDE dynamics can be solved efficiently using a setting of consistent approximations obtained by numerical discretizati...
We study stochastic models to mitigate the risk of poor Quality-of-Service (QoS) in computational markets. Consumers who purchase services expect both price and performance guaran...
Performance critical services over Internet often rely on geographically distributed architectures of replicated servers. Content Delivery Networks (CDN) are a typical example whe...
In the complex, dynamic domain of Air Traffic Control (ATC) many unexpected events can happen during the execution of a plan. Sometimes these disruptions make the plan infeasible ...
Resource management constitutes an important infrastructural component of a computational grid environment. The aim of grid resource management is to efficiently schedule applicat...
