In large-scale, distributed software systems, an important management undertaking concerns the creation and runtime modification of application instances. This short paper propose...
The growing needs in computational power to answer to the increasing number of on-line services and the complexity of applications makes it mandatory to build corresponding hardwar...
Grid technologies have enabled the aggregation of geographically distributed resources, in the context of a particular application. The network remains an important requirement for...
A total order protocol is a fundamental building block in the construction of distributed fault-tolerant applications. Unfortunately, the implementation of such a primitive can be...
This paper describes a research project about robot control across a computing Grid, first step toward a Grid solution for generic process control. A computational Grid can signi...
