Abstract. Distributed Objects DO as de ned by OMG's CORBA architecture provide a model for object-oriented parallel distributed computing. The parallelism in this model howeve...
The importance of distributed systems is growing as computing devices become ubiquitous and bandwidth becomes plentiful. Concurrency and distribution pose algorithmic and implemen...
The prediction of gene function from genome sequences is one of the main issues in Bioinformatics. Most computational approaches are based on the similarity between sequences to in...
At runtime, an embedded control system can switch between alternative functional modes. In each mode, the system operates by using a schedule and controllers that exploit the avai...
Desktop Grids represent an alternative trend in Grid computing using the same software infrastructure as Volunteer Computing projects, such as BOINC. Applications to be deployed o...
