Imagine a future environment where networks of agents - people, robots and software agents - interact with sophisticated sensor grids and environmental actuators to provide advice,...
We propose a parallel and distributed component framework for building Grid applications, adapted to the hierarchical, highly distributed, highly heterogeneous nature of Grids. Thi...
Because of the increasingly diverse and dynamic environments in which they must operate, modern middleware platforms need to explicitly support modifiability. Modifiability should...
In a grid computing environment, resources are autonomous, wide-area distributed, and what’s more, they are usually not free. These unique characteristics make scheduling in a s...
