A key feature in population based optimization algorithms is the ability to explore a search space and make a decision based on multiple solutions. In this paper, an incremental le...
In this paper, we propose a resource-aware solution to achieving reliable and scalable stream diffusion in a probabilistic model, i.e., where communication links and processes are...
Grid Resource Discovery Service is currently a very important focus of research. We propose a scheme that presents essential characteristics for efficient, self-configuring and fau...
In this paper we report an ethnographic study of workarounds--informal temporary practices for handling exceptions to normal workflow--in a hospital environment. Workarounds are a...
