: Wide area network (WAN) -based distributed computing (DC) has become an active field of research, especially under the label of grid computing. On the other hand, research on WAN...
This paper presents a novel architecture called the MetaGrid based on Grid computing concepts for resource provisioning for wide-area network-enabled applications. Resource provis...
The global computational grids bring together distributed computation/communication resources. Beyond this, we envision the emergence of global `service grids', which provide...
Group communications systems have been designed to provide an infrastructure for fault-tolerance in distributed systems, including wide-area systems. In our work on master-worker ...
