Computational grids hold great promise in utilizing geographically separated heterogeneous resources to solve large-scale complex scientific problems. However, a number of major ...
Bush fires cause major damage each year in many areas of the world and the earlier that they can be detected the easier it is to minimize this damage. This paper describes a coll...
Estimating the rate of Web page updates helps in improving the Web crawler’s scheduling policy. But, most of the Web sources are autonomous and updated independently. Clients li...
—Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) consist of spatially-distributed autonomous sensors that can cooperatively monitor physical and environmental conditions. Because of sensors’ r...
Traditionally, distributed resource management/ scheduling systems for the Grid (e.g. Globus/ GRAM/ Condor-G) have tended to deal with coarsegrained and concrete resource types (e....
