—Scientific simulation and modeling often aid in making critical decisions in such diverse fields as city planning, severe weather prediction and influenza modeling. In some o...
The nearly three dozen core technologies of computing sit in a simple framework defined by great principles and by computing practices. The great principles are of two kinds, mech...
The traditional computational devices and models, such as the von Neumann architecture or the Turing machine, are strongly influenced by concepts of central control and perfectio...
In this work, using a game-theoretic approach, costsensitive mechanisms that lead to reliable Internet-based computing are designed. In particular, we consider Internet-based mast...
