Protocol failures are presented for two timestamping schemes. These failures emphasize the importance and di culty of implementing a secure protocol even though there exist secure...
Resource reservations in advance are a mature concept for the allocation of various resources, particularly in grid environments. Common grid toolkits such as Globus support advanc...
We give new algorithms for a variety of randomly-generated instances of computational problems using a linearization technique that reduces to solving a system of linear equations...
Grid technologies are emerging as the next generation of distributed computing, allowing the aggregation of resources that are geographically distributed across different location...
Three protocols for gossip-based failure detection services in large-scale heterogeneous clusters are analyzed and compared. The basic gossip protocol provides a means by which fai...
