The next generation of computing systems will be embedded, in a virtually unbounded number, and dynamically connected. The current software, network architectures, and their assoc...
In the manufacturing domain, few new distributed systems are built ground-up; most contain wrapped legacy components. While the legacy components themselves are already well-teste...
This paper presents the concept of pluggable parallelisation that allows scientists to develop “sequential like” codes that can take advantage of multi-core, cluster and grid ...
Abstract. Many distributed applications can be understood in terms of components interacting in an open environment. This interaction is not always uniform as the network may consi...
The advent of high-performance networks in conjunction with low-cost, powerful computational engines has made possible the development of a new set of technologies termed computat...
