— This paper considers a formal object-oriented model for distributed computing. Object orientation appears as a leading framework for concurrent and distributed systems. However...
This paper presents a multiagent-system for integrating ALICE: a real-life, distributed, large-scale particle physics experiment of the LHC project at CERN. The work is concerned ...
Switching fabrics with distributed control for scalable routers have been proposed recently [7]. Such a fabric consists of small routing units (RU’s) interconnected by multistag...
A distributed search system consists of a large number of autonomous search servers logically connected in a peerto-peer network. Each search server maintains a local index of a c...
Workstation clusters are becoming an interesting alternative to dedicated multiprocessors. In this environment, the probability of a failure, during an application's executio...
