Randomness is a critical resource in many computational scenarios, enabling solutions where deterministic ones are elusive or even provably impossible. However, the randomized solu...
Abstract. A method is proposed whereby values for Service Level Objectives (SLOs) of an SLA can be chosen to reduce the sum IT infrastructure cost plus business financial loss. Bu...
This paper presents a new model for mobile processes in occam-π. A process, embedded anywhere in a dynamically evolving network, may suspend itself mid-execution, be safely discon...
This paper conducts experiments with three skewed data sets, seeking to demonstrate problems when skewed data is used, and identifying counter problems when data is balanced. The b...
In this paper, we propose an active grid resource management system supported by active networks for computational grid. First, we construct a scalable two-level resource managemen...
