Resource discovery is an important process for finding suitable nodes that satisfy application requirements in large loosely-coupled distributed systems. Besides inter-node heter...
— Current service discovery protocols (SDP) hardly provide information on the actual availability of resources in the network or a mechanism for (device) resource reservation. Wh...

Abstract. We propose a framework for managing resources via convergent operators. Operators represent their need for a resource to a designated resource closure operator that manag...
Public resource computing depends on the availability of computing resources that have been contributed by individuals. The amount of resources can be increased by incentivizing r...
—We present a practical, market-based solution to the resource provisioning problem in a set of heterogeneous resource clusters. We focus on provisioning rather than immediate sc...
