Advances in wireless vehicular networks present us with opportunities for developing new distributed traffic control algorithms that avoid phenomena such as abrupt phase-transition...
Online Social Networks (OSNs) are more and more popular recently; people may through them interact with each other for the purpose of social intercourse. The client/server OSN arch...
New architectures have recently been proposed and deployed to support end-to-end advance reservation of network resources. These architectures rely on the use a centralized schedul...
Automatic tuning has emerged as a solution to provide high-performance libraries for fast changing, increasingly complex computer architectures. We distinguish offline adaptation (...
This paper investigates scheduling loosely coupled task-bundles in highly heterogeneous distributed systems. Two allocation quality metrics are used in pay-per-service distributed ...
