-- Future distributed applications are expected to be deployed in an environment that is more dynamic and heterogeneous than ever before. The environment features are difficult to ...
In a Grid Computing environment, there are various important issues, including information security, resource management, routing, fault tolerance, and so on. Among these issues, ...
Much experience has been gained with the protocols and mechanisms needed for discovery and allocation of remote computational resources. However, the preparation of a remote compu...
This paper attempts to reduce the overheads of dynamically creating and destroying the virtual environments for secure job execution. It broaches a grid architecture which we call...
Network applications and services need to be environment-aware in order to meet non-functional requirements in increasingly dynamic contexts. In this paper we consider partition a...
