The growing computational and storage needs of several scientific applications mandate the deployment of extreme-scale parallel machines, such as IBM’s BlueGene/L which can acc...
— Service Composition is a promising technology for providing on-demand services in dynamic and loosely coupled peerto-peer (P2P) networks. Because of system dynamics, such as th...
Wireless 802.11 hotspots have grown in an uncoordinated fashion with highly variable deployment densities. Such uncoordinated deployments, coupled with the difficulty of implemen...
An increasing amount of heterogeneous information about scientific research is becoming available on-line. This potentially allows users to explore the information from multiple p...
In this work a cooperative, bid-based, model for problem decomposition is proposed with application to discrete action domains such as classification. This represents a significan...
