— The dynamic composition of systems of networked appliances, or virtual devices, enables users to generate complex strong specific systems. Current prominent MANET-based composi...
In large-scale clusters and computational grids, component failures become norms instead of exceptions. Failure occurrence as well as its impact on system performance and operatio...
— Access control in computational grids is typically provided by a combination of identity certificates and local accounts. This approach does not scale as the number of users a...

Flexible resource management and scheduling policies require detailed system-state information. Traditional, monolithic operating systems with a centralized kernel derive the requ...
We describe how to control the cumulative use of distributed grid resources by using coordination aware policy decision points (coordinated PDPs) and an SQL database to hold "...
