This paper describes simulations designed to test the relative efficiency of two different sequential auction mechanisms for allocating compute resources between users in a shared...
The Grid vision promises the secure and dynamic sharing of heterogeneous resources across the Internet. To date the emphasis has been on supercomputing scenarios where a relatively...
Service discovery and its automation are some of the key features that a large scale, open distributed system must provide so that clients and users may take advantage of shared re...
Spontaneous interaction in wireless ad-hoc networks is often desirable not only between users or devices in direct contact, but also with devices that are accessible only via a wi...
Event-driven systems are used in a wide range of applications such as responding to missile attacks, interdicting potential terrorists, exploiting arbitrage opportunities and resp...
