The ability to find services or resources that satisfy some criteria is an important aspect of distributed systems. This paper presents an event-based architecture to support more...
Trustworthy computing modules like secure coprocessors (ScP) are already in extensive use today, albeit limited predominantly to scenarios where constraints on cost is not a seriou...
Resource allocation problems in multi-user systems, modeled as Nash bargaining (NB) cooperative games, are investigated under different constraints. Using the joint time division m...
The problem of optimal allocation of monitoring resources for tracking transactions progressing through a distributed system, modeled as a queueing network, is considered. Two for...
