There is an increasing interest in integrating Javabased, and in particular Jini systems, with the emerging Grid infrastructures. In this paper we explore various ways of integrat...
We consider the case of sparse mobile sensors deployed to implement missions in challenging environments. This paper explores a notion of tour networks that is well suited to circ...
Cluster computing environments built from commodity hardware have provided a cost-effective solution for many scientific and high-performance applications. Likewise, middleware te...
GRID technology, emerging in the late nineties, has evolved from a metacomputing architecture towards a pervasive computation and information utility. However, the architectural de...
