Abstract— Following widespread availability of wireless Internet, a wide range of applications with differing QoS requirements must share the wireless access. The objective of th...
— Recently, researchers have discovered that many of social, natural and biological networks are characterized by scale-free power-law connectivity distribution and a few densely...
Peer-to-peer grids aim to build computational grids encompassing thousands of sites. To achieve this scale, such systems cannot rely on trust or off-line negotiations among partic...
