Abstract—Performance is a key feature of large-scale computing systems. However, the achieved performance when a certain program is executed is significantly lower than the maxi...
Currently, we are developing an agent-team based infrastructure for resource brokering and management in Grids. In this note we consider how team is supervised and how mirroring c...

The new era of multi-core processing challenges software designers to efficiently exploit the parallelism that is now massively available. Programmers have to exchange the conven...
Some researchers have illustrated how individual and groups of bacteria forage for nutrients and to model it as a distributed optimization process, which is called the Bacterial F...
In 2006, John Mellor-Crummey and Michael Scott received the Dijkstra Prize in Distributed Computing. This prize was for their 1991 paper on algorithms for scalable synchronization ...
Hardware/software partitioning is a crucial problem in embedded system design. In this paper, we provide an alternative approach to solve this problem using Particle Swarm Optimiz...

Active XML (AXML) systems provide an elegant platform to integrate the power of XML, Web services and Peer to Peer (P2P) paradigms by allowing (active) Web service calls to be emb...
Shadows are well known as a programming language feature in the application area of MUDs (a certain type of multi-player online game). We argue that agile methodologies can be enh...
As the end of Moores-law is on the horizon, power becomes a limiting factor to continuous increases in performance gains for single-core processors. Processor engineers have shifte...
