Application-layer networks (ALN) are software architectures that allow the provisioning of services requiring a huge amount of resources by connecting large numbers of individual ...

We introduce a distributed and tractable mechanism for the allocation of continuously divisible resources to agents, that locally maximises the (Nash) product of their individual ...
An ad hoc grid is a spontaneous formation of cooperating heterogenous computing nodes which attempts to provide computing resources on demand to every participant. In this paper, ...
Due to the limited energy supplies of nodes in many applications like wireless sensor networks, energy efficiency is crucial for extending the lifetime of these networks. This pape...
In this paper, we study p2p systems, where peers have to share their available resources between their own and other peers' needs. One such example is a system of peers who us...
