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 ...
The wide applications of cyber-physical systems (CPS) call for effective design strategies that optimize the performance of both computing units and physical plants. We study the ...
