In this work a cooperative, bid-based, model for problem decomposition is proposed with application to discrete action domains such as classification. This represents a significan...
Multimedia applications usually have throughput constraints. An implementation must meet these constraints, while it minimizes resource usage and energy consumption. The compute i...
Workflow technology is an emerging paradigm for systematic modeling and orchestration of job flow for enterprise and scientific applications. This paper introduces BPEL4Job, a BPEL...
Many industrial applications rely on sensors and sensor networks residing on machinery, transport containers or in the environment. For distributed processes in such domains the s...
