M2MC is a new distributed computing middleware designed to support collaborative applications running on devices connected by broadcast networks. Examples of such networks are wire...
In high energy physics, bioinformatics, and other disciplines, we encounter applications involving numerous, loosely coupled jobs that both access and generate large data sets. So...
Information retrieval systems can be partitioned into two main classes: large-scale systems that make use of an inverted index or some other auxiliary data structure, intended for...
Networked, distributed real world sensing is an increasingly prominent topic in computing and has quickly expanded from resource constrained “sensor networks” measuring simple...
Abstract. Current trends in software development show a move towards supporting autonomous components (agents). The accurate timing of interactions between such components is growi...
