Data-intensive, interactive applications are an important class of metacomputing (Grid) applications. They are characterized by large, time-varying data flows between data provid...
Internet-based multi-agent systems call for new metaphors, abstractions, methodologies and enabling technologies specifically tailored to agent-oriented engineering. While coordin...
Wide-area distributed applications are frequently limited by the performance of Internet data transfer. We argue that the principle cause of this effect is the poor interaction be...
On-Line Analytical Processing techniques are used for data analysis and decision support systems. The multidimensionality of the underlying data is well represented by multidimens...
The Loop-Level Process Control LLPC policy 9 dynamically adjusts the number of threads an application is allowed to execute based on the application's available parallelism a...
