Cloud computing involves a large number of shared virtual servers that are accessible from
both public and private networks. It has provided scalable and multitenant computing …

Cloud computing provides on-demand access to computational resources which together
with pay-per-use business models, enable application providers seamlessly scaling their …

This paper reviews the threat of economic denial of sustainability on recent communication
networks and discusses their adaptation to emergent scenarios suited for self-organization …

Cloud computing is a novel perspective for large scale distributed computing and parallel
processing. It provides computing as a utility service on a pay per use basis. The …

Today, the high cost of supercomputers in the one hand and the need for large-scale
computational resources on the other hand, has led to use network of computational …

In this paper we present Genetic Algorithms (GAs) based schedulers for efficiently allocating
jobs to resources in a Grid system. Scheduling is a key problem in emergent computational …

Efficient management of service level agreements which specify mutually-agreed
understandings and expectations of service provision has been a subject of research for a …

A computational grid is composed of a set of resource consumers and resources providers.
Usually these entities are independent and making decisions autonomously based on their …

This paper studies consensus problems of multi-agent systems with binary-valued
communications. Different from most existing works, the agents considered in this paper can …

With the rapid growth of data and computational needs, distributed systems and
computational Grids are gaining more and more attention. The huge amount of …
