The coordination paradigm has been used extensively as a mechanism for software composition and integration. However, little work has been done for the cases where the software com...
Domain-partition (DP) model is a general model for reliability maximization problem under given redundancy. In this paper, an improved DP model is used to formulate a reconfigurati...
Using a directed acyclic graph (dag) model of algorithms, we solve a problem related to precedenceconstrained multiprocessor schedules for array computations: Given a sequence of ...
In this paper, we present a heuristic algorithm that improves the performance of static task scheduling. Our algorithm is based on the list-scheduling mechanism. For the listing p...
Despite recent widespread interest in the secure authentication of principals across computer networks there has been considerably less discussion of distributed mechanisms to sup...
