—Some current and future pervasive data driven applications must operate in ”extreme” environments where endto-end connectivity cannot be guaranteed at all times. In fact, it...
Load balancing is often used to ensure that nodes in a distributed systems are equally loaded. In this paper, we show that for real-time systems, load balancing is not desirable. ...
In order to allow every user to extract aggregated computational power from idle PCs in the Internet, we propose a distributed architecture to achieve a market based resource shar...
Grid and ubiquitous computing systems generally consist of a large number of networked nodes with applications implemented as distributed services or processes, respectively. A cr...
