Effective task scheduling and deployment is hard to achieve in a Grid environment, where computing resources are heterogamous and shared between local and Grid users without a cen...
Cooperative checkpointing, in which the system dynamically skips checkpoints requested by applications at runtime, can exploit system-level information to improve performance and ...
In this paper, we present a Dynamic Load Balancing (DLB) policy for problems characterized by a highly irregular search tree, whereby no reliable workload prediction is available....
We describe the problem of data dissemination in stream-oriented applications where the required filter is a function of the current state. We call such functions dynamic filter...
Mobile learning has a lot of potential for supporting learning in situations such as in a museum, at a tourist sight or when exploring biological phenomena at a riverside. There l...
