Simulation studies are frequently used to evaluate new peer-to-peer searching techniques as well as existing techniques on new applications. Unless these studies are accurate in th...
We propose a model for describing the parallel performance of multigrid software on distributed memory architectures. The goal of the model is to allow reliable predictions to be m...
Embedded systems for closed-loop applications often behave as discrete-time semi-Markov processes (DTSMPs). Performability measures most meaningful to iterative embedded systems, ...
In a packet switching based scenario, optical technologies can not completely overcome the problem of insufficient network capacity, due to limitations produced by the presence of ...
The InteGrade project is an on-going project with the participation of several research groups in Brazil. It is an opportunistic grid middleware that intends to exploit the idle t...
