In this paper, we derive an analytical model for the evaluation of the performance of a Video on Demand (VoD) system. The model estimates the mean waiting time achievable by the P...
We have designed a maximum likelihood fitter using the actor model to distribute the computation over a heterogeneous network. The prototype implementation uses the SALSA program...

The paper presents an evaluation-relaxation scheme where a fitness surrogate automatically adapts to the problem structure and the partial contributions of subsolutions to the fit...
Current research in the area of manufacturing planning and control has moved away from traditional centralized solutions towards distributed architectures that range from hierarch...
Recently, enterprise interoperability has been improved by the Web Service technology, making available an ever-growing number of services. Service discovery is considered a crucia...
