In the future 4G wireless networks will span across different administrative domains. In order to provide secure seamless handovers in such an environment the Context Transfer Pro...
Scheduling for speculative parallelization is a problem that remained unsolved despite its importance. Simple methods such as Fixed-Size Chunking (FSC) need several ‘dry-runs’...
Parallel programming models based on a mixture of task and data parallelism have shown to be successful in addressing the increasing communication overhead of distributed memory p...
This paper examines the scalable parallel implementation of QR factorization of a general matrix, targeting SMP and multi-core architectures. Two implementations of algorithms-by-...
Autonomic management can be used to improve the QoS provided by parallel/distributed applications. We discuss behavioural skeletons introduced in earlier work: rather than relying...

Distributed software environments are increasingly complex and difficult to manage, as they integrate various legacy software with specific management interfaces. Moreover, the ...

The need for integration of human interaction scenarios into BPEL processes lead to the formalisation of tasks and human roles. The specifications BPEL4People and WSHumanTask int...
Matrix computation algorithms often exhibit dependencies between neighboring elements inside loop nests such that the frontier between computed elements and those to be computed w...
