Current network protocols must comply with rigid interfaces and rules of behavior to fit into well defined, vertical protocol stacks. It is difficult for network designers to offe...
Recent advances in computing and communication have given rise to the computational grid notion. The core of this computing paradigm is the design of a system for drawing compute ...
In this paper, we describe the challenges of prototyping a reference application on System S, a distributed stream processing middleware under development at IBM Research. With a ...
