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...
Abstract. Plugins are optional components which can be used to enable the dynamic construction of flexible and complex systems, passing as much of the configuration management ef...
The focus of typical architectural models is the description of large systems. Even though these systems are usually distributed, aspects of distributed systems are only addressed...
Network Control is currently carried out mainly by means of signalling protocols. Although these protocols are robust and facilitate standardisation, they present several drawback...
We present YAAP: a generic active network architecture with the ability to manually and dynamically deploy network services within distributed network nodes and providing a secure ...
