Conventional implementations of CORBA communication middleware incur significant overhead when used for performance-sensitive applications over high-speed networks. As gigabit ne...
The Collaborative Computing Transport Layer (CCTL) is a communication substrate consisting of a suite of multiparty protocols, providing varying service qualities among process gr...

This paper presents two variants of Genetic Algorithms (GAs) for solving the Multiple Container Packing Problem (MCPP), which is a combinatorial optimization problem comprising sim...
Clusters of networked, off-the-shelf workstations are currently used for computationintensive, parallel applications. However, it is hardly possible to predict the timing behaviou...
We present a novel approach to concept learning in which a coevolutionary genetic algorithm is applied to the construction of an immune system whose antibodies can discriminate bet...
—The increasing deployment of wireless access technology, along with the emergence of high speed integrated service networks, such as ATM, promises to provide mobile users with u...
A secure reliable multicast protocol enables a process to send a message to a group of recipients such that all correct destinations receive the same message, despite the maliciou...
Two novel suboptimal algorithms for mutual exclusion in distributed systems are presented. One is based on the modi cation of Maekawa's grid based quorum scheme. The size of ...
