This paper focuses on the problem of scheduling outages to computer systems in complex distributed environments. The interconnected nature of these systems makes scheduling global ...
Dual-core processors (and, to an extent, multicore processors) have been adopted in recent years to provide platforms that satisfy the performance requirements of popular multimed...
The agent view provides maybe the right level of abstraction for dealing with complex, distribblem-solving systems. It abstracts from aspects like the hardware or software platfor...
The changing nature of e-Learning, the Web, and its users that can be observed in the last years results in a need for new approaches and technologies to fully exploit the existing...
In many distributed computing paradigms, especially sensor networks and ubiquitous computing but also grid computing and web services, programmers commonly tie their application to...
