When spatial objects are replicated at several sites in the network, the updates of a long transaction in a specific site should be propagated to the other sites for maintaining th...
The object model is a very popular paradigm for building distributed applications. Several standardisation efforts are underway that define architectures for distributed computing...
This paper describes work in progress to develop a component-based software infrastructure, called Padico, for computational grids based on the CORBA Component Model from the OMG....
The need to continue to work in a mobile environment raises the problem of data availability in the presence of disconnections. Our approach aiming at solving this problem is to m...
As storage systems scale to thousands of disks, data distribution and load balancing become increasingly important. We present an algorithm for allocating data objects to disks as...
