Compile-time scheduling is one approach to extract parallelism which has proved effective when the execution behavior is predictable. Unfortunately, the performance of most priori...
Service discovery is a key concept in a distributed Grid environment. The first step towards Grid implement is the discovery of services. In this paper, we build a new Grid servic...
Volunteer Computing (VC) is a paradigm that takes advantage of idle cycles from computing resources donated by volunteers and connected through the Internet to compute large-scale...
− In a clustered, multi-hop sensor network, a large number of inexpensive, geographically-distributed sensor nodes each use their observations of the environment to make local ha...
We introduce a generic framework for the distributed execution of combinatorial optimization tasks. Instead of relying on custom hardware (like dedicated parallel machines or clus...
