We propose a model for describing the parallel performance of multigrid software on distributed memory architectures. The goal of the model is to allow reliable predictions to be m...
– The Madeira project, part of the Celtic Initiative1 , investigates the use of a fully distributed, policy-based network management framework that exploits the peer-to-peer para...

In this paper, we propose a novel approach to solving the distributed constraint optimisation problem (DCOP) that guarantees completeness, while having linear communication comple...
— We consider applications of sensor networks wherein data packets generated by every node have to reach the base station. This results in a many-to-one communication paradigm re...
