We understand distributed systems as a collection of distributed computation resources that work together as one harmonious system. It is the great achievement of computer network...
This paper attempts to articulate the general role of infrastructure for multi-agent systems (MAS), and why infrastructure is a particularly critical issue if we are to increase th...
The rapid progress in high-performance microprocessor design has made it di cult to adapt real-time scheduling results to new models of microprocessor hardware, thus leaving an un...
Parallelizing compiler technology has improved in recent years. One area in which compilers have made progress is in handling DOACROSS loops, where crossprocessor data dependencie...
Abstract. Several computing environments including wide area networks and nondedicated networks of workstations are characterized by frequent unavailability of the participating ma...
