Abstract—Many protocols for ad-hoc wireless networks perform poorly in situations when node cooperation cannot be enforced. This may happen because of the lack of global authorit...
The demand for more computational power in science and engineering has spurred the design and deployment of ever-growing cluster systems. Even though the individual components use...
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,...
This paper presents an environment for supporting parallel/distributed programming using Java with RMI and RMI-IIOP (CORBA). The environment implements the notion of Shared Object...
In the Sprite environment, tolerating faults means recovering from them quickly. Our position is that performance and availability are the desired features of the typical locally-...
