—Caching is a popular technique for reducing both server load and user response time in distributed systems. In this paper, we consider the question of whether caching might be e...
Grid computing offers a promising approach to solving challenging computational problems in an environment consisting of a large number of easily accessible resources. In this pape...
Routing based on a connected dominating set is a promising approach, where the search space for a route is reduced to the hosts in the set. A set is dominating if all the hosts in...
The basic idea to defend in this paper is that an adequate perception of the search space, sacrificing most of the precision, can paradoxically accelerate the discovery of the mo...
