— Grid computing requires network services beyond what is currently provided by the Best-Effort Internet. Among the different approaches towards network Quality of Service, aggre...
Abstract. We are witnessing a dramatic increase in the use of datacentric distributed systems such as global grid infrastructures, sensor networks, network monitoring, and various ...
With the increased popularity of replica-based services in distributed systems such as the Grid, consistency control among replicas becomes more and more important. To this end, I...
The efficiency of service discovery is critical in the development of fully decentralized middleware intended to manage large scale computational grids. This demand influenced t...
In this paper, we propose a new model for securing agent-based systems in which agents are equipped with reasoning capabilities allowing them to interact with each other. The agen...
