We discuss and prove the correctness of a transaction model for mobile computing. In our transaction model, we incorporate a prewrite operation (before a write) which does not upda...
This paper is motivated by the need to support multiple service classes in fast packet-switched networks. We address the problem of characterizing and designing scheduling policie...
In high-end grid networks, distributed resources (scientific instruments, CPUs, storages, etc.) are interconnected to support computing-intensive and data-intensive applications, w...
In multi -agent systems based on softbots, communication architectures have significant influences on system performance as interaction and cooperation of softbots are carried out...
Ninf is an ongoing global network-wide computing infrastructure project which allows users to access computational resources including hardware, software and scientific data distri...
