RPC is one of the programming models envisioned for the Grid. In Internet connected Large Scale Grids such as Desktop Grids, nodes and networks failures are not rare events. This ...
The ever increasing gap in processor and memory speeds has a very negative impact on performance. One possible solution to overcome this problem is the Kilo-instruction processor. ...
Cryptographic protocol design in a two-party setting has often ignored the possibility of simultaneous message transmission by each of the two parties (i.e., using a duplex channe...
This paper presents a new model for mobile processes in occam-π. A process, embedded anywhere in a dynamically evolving network, may suspend itself mid-execution, be safely discon...
Interactive ray tracing in a cluster environment requires paying close attention to the constraints of a loosely coupled distributed system. To render large scenes interactively, ...
