Diversity is an important source of robustness in biological systems. Computers, by contrast, are notable for their lack of diversity. Although homogeneous systems have many advan...
Abstract. This paper presents a new computer supported remote learning and gaming method using Tele-Face Mouse system. The Tele-Face Mouse system is being developed as a teleconfer...
A recent trend in modern high performance computing (HPC) system architectures employs “lean” compute nodes running a lightweight operating system (OS). Certain parts of the OS...
Resource management is a central part of a Grid computing system. In a large-scale wide-area system such as the Grid, security is a prime concern. One approach is to be conservati...
In rule-based systems, goal-oriented computations correspond naturally to the possible ways that an observation may be explained. In some applications, we need to compute explanat...
