Abstract. Orc is a theory of orchestration of services that allows structured programming of distributed and timed computations. Several formal semantics have been proposed for Orc...
—Emerging applications of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) require real-time quality of service (QoS) guarantees to be provided by the network. However, designing real-time schedu...
We study two problems directly resulting from organizational decentralization of the Grid. Firstly, the problem of fair scheduling in systems in which the grid scheduler has compl...
