Suppose that a program makes a sequence of m accesses (references) to data blocks, the cache can hold k < m blocks, an access to a block in the cache incurs one time unit, and ...
To provide performant access to data from high energy physics experiments such as the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), controlled replication of files among grid sites is required. Dy...

A typical storage hierarchy comprises of components with varying performance and cost characteristics, providing multiple options for data placement. We propose and evaluate a hie...
Resource management for ad hoc grids is challenging due to the participation of heterogeneous, dynamic, autonomous and ephemeral nodes. Different underlying network infrastructure...
An outstanding security problem in mobile agent systems is resource access control, or authorization in its broader sense. In this paper we present an authorization framework for m...
