We propose distributed algorithms to automatically deploy a group of mobile robots to partition and provide coverage of a non-convex environment. To handle arbitrary nonconvex envi...

Experimental performance studies on computer systems, including Grids, require deep understandings on their workload characteristics. The need arises from two important and closel...
We propose a parallel and distributed component framework for building Grid applications, adapted to the hierarchical, highly distributed, highly heterogeneous nature of Grids. Thi...
Peer-to-Peer (P2P) technologies promise to provide efficient distribution, sharing and management of resources, such as storage, processing, routing and other sundry service capabi...
Context-aware applications rely on the ability to perceive the state of the surrounding environment. In this paper, we address a class of such applications where real-time guarant...
