Modern scientific computing involves organizing, moving, visualizing, and analyzing massive amounts of data from around the world, as well as employing largescale computation. The...
Despite many years of ubiquitous computing (ubicomp) middleware research, deployment of such systems has not been widespread. We suggest this is in part because we lack a shared mo...
Wide-area distributed systems like computational grids are emergent infrastructures for high-performance parallel applications. On these systems, communication mechanisms have to ...
Wide-area parallel processing systems will soon be available to researchers to solve a range of problems. In these systems, it is certain that host failures and other faults will ...
abstract over a complex set of resources and provide a high-level way to share and manage them over the network. To be effective, such a system must address the challenges posed by...
