In heterogeneous distributed systems, such as Grids, a resource broker is responsible of automatically selecting resources, and mapping application tasks to them. A crucial aspect...
This paper describes a pilot project to research the use of a dynamic visual interface as the basis of a scenarioplanning tool. We introduce ‘flow’ as a theoretical framework ...
A QoS provisioned CIOQ switch using crossbar structure with m parallel lines per output port is proposed in this paper. The packets at input buffers are transferred to the output ...
Abstract. We explore techniques for efficient Quality of Service Routing in the presence of multiple constraints. We first present a polynomial time approximation algorithm for th...
Defeasible Logic is a rule-based non-monotonic logic with tractable reasoning services. In this paper we extend Defeasible Logic with nested rules. We consider a new Defeasible Log...
