In this paper, we consider a large scale sensor network comprising multiple, say K, base stations and a large number of wireless sensors. Such an infrastructure is expected to be ...
Existing task allocation algorithms generally do not consider the effects of task interaction, such as interference, but instead assume that tasks are independent. That assumptio...
—We introduce Zen, a new resource allocation framework that assigns application components to node clusters to achieve high availability for partial-fault tolerant (PFT) applicat...
In this paper, we introduce the combinatorial auction model for resource management in grids. We propose a combinatorial auction-based resource allocation protocol in which a user...
—We investigate the problem of memory reuse in order to reduce the memory needed to store an array variable. We develop techniques that can lead to smaller memory requirements in...
