The performance skeleton of an application is a short running program whose execution time in any scenario reflects the estimated execution time of the application it represents....
— In a grid-computing environment, resource selection and scheduling depend on the network topology connecting the computation nodes. This paper presents a method to hierarchical...
This paper introduces and solves a security problem of pervasive computing: how to define authorizations for offline interactions when trust relationships among entities do not ex...
We consider architectural properties required for supporting automatic service composition. After defining composable service architecture, we proceed to examine the role of trus...
Abstract— We present a computational framework for automatic deployment of robots in 2D and 3D rectangular environments with polytopal obstacles. The results are derived for poly...
