Active worms continue to pose major threats to the security of today's Internet. This is due to the ability of active worms to automatically propagate themselves and compromi...
Peer-to-peer (P2P) systems are gaining increasing popularity as a scalable means to share data among a large number of autonomous nodes. In this paper, we consider the case in whic...
In this paper, we study a novel form of continuous nearest neighbor queries in the presence of obstacles, namely continuous obstructed nearest neighbor (CONN) search. It considers...
This paper focuses on load management in looselycoupled federated distributed systems. We present a distributed mechanism for moving load between autonomous participants using bil...
