We apply the concept of “games with a purpose” to NPcomplete mapping and scheduling problems in distributed systems and report our experiences. The particular context is a sch...
Abstract— The increasing computing and communication capabilities of multi-function devices (MFDs) have enabled networks of such devices to provide value-added services. This has...

— Robots that can interact naturally with humans require the integration and coordination of many different components with heavy computational demands. We argue that an architec...
A Grid system is a Virtual Organization that is composed of several autonomous domains. Authorization in such a system needs to be flexible and scalable to support multiple securi...
