In this paper we propose a distributed approach to construct vicinity resource maps at each node in a delaytolerant network. The scheme uses recent encounters to estimate the avail...
We deal with temporal aspects of distributed systems, introducing and studying a new model called timed distributed -calculus. This model extends distributed -calculus with timers...
We introduce a formal model for deployment and hosting of a dynamic grid service wherein the service provider must pay a resource provider for the use of computational resources. ...
An important emerging requirement for computing systems is the ability to adapt at run time, taking advantage of local computing devices, and coping with dynamically changing reso...
With the advent of high-performance COTS clusters, there is a need for a simple, scalable and faulttolerant parallel programming and execution paradigm. In this paper, we show that...
