One of the main challenges in Grid computing is efficient allocation of resources (CPU-hours, network bandwidth, etc.) to the tasks submitted by users. Due to the lack of centrali...
Protocols that provide reliable communicationon top of a network that can lose packets rely on periodically retransmitting packets. The choice of retransmission timeout critically...
The emerging Grid is extending the scope of resources to mobile devices and sensors that are connected through unreliable networks. Nowadays the number of mobile device users is in...
Abstract—In real networks, disjoint paths are needed for providing protection against single link/node failure. When disjoint paths cannot be found, an alternative solution is to...
