This paper presents a general-purpose distributed lookup service, denoted Passive Distributed Indexing (PDI). PDI stores entries in form of (key, value) pairs in index caches loca...
High efficiency in capacity utilization and fast restoration are two primary goals of survivable design in optical networks. Shared backup path protection has been shown to be effi...
Abstract. Distributed cooperative applications (e.g., e-commerce) are now increasingly being designed as a set of autonomous entities, named agents, which interact and coordinate (...
Computational Grids have the potential to become the main execution platform for high performance and distributed applications. However, such systems are extremely complex and pro...
