Abstract— Component-based applications require good middleware support. In particular, business logic should be separated from management code for guaranteeing nonfunctional prop...
Many of today's complex computer applications are being modeled and constructed using the principles inherent to real-time distributed object systems. In response to this dem...
Abstract. This paper presents P2P-MPI, a middleware aimed at computational grids. From the programmer point of view, P2P-MPI provides a message-passing programming model which enab...
Parallel algorithm designers need computational models that take first order system costs into account, but are also simple enough to use in practice. This paper introduces the L...
This paper presents a precise market model for a well-defined class of distributed configuration design problems. Given a design problem, the model defines a computational economy...
