Peer-to-peer systems offer attractive system management properties, including the ability of components that join the network to self-organize; scalability up to tens of thousands...
What would a PKI look like if it were designed for implementability and deployability rather than strict adherence to a particular theoretical or mathematical model? This paper pr...
In this work, we address investment decisions in production systems by using real options. As is standard in literature, the stochastic variable is assumed to be normally distribu...
The number of distributed high performance computing architectures has increased exponentially these last years. Thus, systems composed by several computational resources provided ...
A peer-to-peer (P2P) data management system consists essentially of a network of peer systems, each maintaining full autonomy over its own data resources. Data exchange between pe...
