The effectiveness and scalability of MapReduce-based implementations of complex data-intensive tasks depend on an even redistribution of data between map and reduce tasks. In the...
: Efficient information sharing is very important for emergency and rescue operations. These operations often have to be performed in environments where no communication infrastruc...
Abstract—In this paper, we consider privacy challenges in eventdriven pervasive spaces where multimedia streams captured by sensors embedded in the infrastructure are used to det...
Scheduling tasks on large-scale computational grids is difficult due to the heterogeneous computational capabilities of the resources, node unavailability and unreliable network ...
This paper proposes GRIDTS, a grid infrastructure in which the resources select the tasks they execute, on the contrary to traditional infrastructures where schedulers find resou...
