Hidden information is a critical issue for the successful delivery of SLAs in grid systems. It arises when the agents (hardware and software resources) employed to serve a task be...
The development of grid algorithms is frequently hampered by limited means to describe topologies and lack of support for the invasive composition of legacy components in order to...
In this paper, we argue that the reliability of large-scale storage systems can be significantly improved by using better reliability metrics and more efficient policies for rec...
Abstract— We consider the problem of minimizing the resources used for network coding while achieving the desired throughput in a multicast scenario. Since this problem is NPhard...
