Abstract--The size, heterogeneity and dynamism of the execution platforms of scientific applications, like computational grids, make using those platforms complex. Furthermore, tod...
In order to handle classification problems with real-valued attributes using discretization algorithms it is necessary to obtain a good and reduced set of cut points in order to l...
: Grid Services became a widely used technology for building service oriented applications. The Web Service Resource Framework (WSRF) is the current standard used for building such...
Abstract Sensor devices produce data that are unreliable, low-level, and seldom able to be used directly by applications. In this paper, we propose Metaphysical Data Independence (...
