In this paper, we take an availability-centric view on quality of service (QoS) and propose a model and mechanisms for studying the effectiveness of realistic replication schemes ...
Decision making is the ability to decide on the best alternative among a set of candidates based on their value. In many real-world domains the value depends on events that occur ...
We consider a wireless sensor network in which sensors are grouped into clusters, each with its own cluster head (CH). Each CH collects data from sensors in its cluster and relays...
One of the main advantages of using a scientific workflow management system (SWfMS) to orchestrate data flows among scientific activities is to control and register the whole work...
