Grid computing allows the utilization of vast computational resources for solving complex scientific and engineering problems. However, development tools for Grid applications are...
This discussion paper explores the problems of operating systems support when implementing concurrency controls at the level of the instruction set in processors designed for mult...
We define reactive simulatability for general asynchronous systems. Roughly, simulatability means that a real system implements an ideal system (specification) in a way that pre...
Grid computations require global access to massive data stores. To meet this need, the GridNFS project aims to provide scalable, high-performance, transparent, and secure wide-are...
Iris recognition is regarded as the most reliable biometrics and has been widely applied in both public and personal security areas. However users have to highly cooperate with th...
