The ability to quickly predict the throughput of a TCP transfer between a client and a server, or between peers, has wide application in scientific computing and commercial compu...
These last years, the evolution of nomadic terminals and mobile networks has yield to the development of the ubiquitous computing. In this context, actual query evaluation and opt...
With the advent of Grid computing, more and more highend computational resources become available for use to a scientist. While this opens up new avenues for scientific research,...
Abstract. This paper investigates the problem of autonomously allocating a large number of independent, equal sized tasks on a distributed heterogeneous grid-like platform, using o...
Grid computing provides a robust paradigm to aggregate disparate resources in a secure and controlled environment. Grid architectures require an underpinning Quality of Service (Qo...
