In global economy, turbulent organization environment strongly influences organization's operation. Organizations must constantly adapt to changing circumstances and search for new possibilities of gaining competitive advantage. To face…
In a data center network, for example, it is quite often to use controllers to manage resources in a centralized man- ner. Centralized control, however, imposes a scalability problem. In this paper, we investigate the use of multiple…
Grid superscheduling requires support for efficient and scalable discovery of resources. Resource discovery activities involve searching for the appropriate resource types that match the user's job requirements. To accomplish this goal, a…
To ensure uninterrupted services to the cloud clients from federated cloud providers, it is important to guarantee an efficient allocation of the cloud resources to users to improve the rate of client satisfaction and the quality of the…
One of the strength of Virtual Organisations is their ability to dynamically and rapidly adapt in response to changing environmental conditions. Dynamic adaptability has been studied in other system areas as well and system management…
In this paper, we propose a novel approach to group users according to the VoD user request pattern. We cluster the user requests based on ART1 neural network algorithm. The knowledge extracted from the cluster is used to prefetch the…
As Grids are emerging as the next generation service-oriented computing platforms, they need to support Grid economy that helps in the management of supply and demand for resources and offers an economic incentive for Grid resource…
Performance management (PM) is a key function of virtual organization (VO) management. A large set of PM indicators has been proposed and evaluated within the context of virtual breeding environments (VBEs). However, it is currently…
Trusted Computing is a security base technology that will perhaps be ubiquitous in a few years in personal computers and mobile devices alike. Despite its neutrality with respect to applications, it has raised some privacy concerns. We show…
Consumers seeking a new mobile plan have many choices in the present mobile landscape. The Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO) has recently gained considerable attention among these options. MVNOs offer various benefits, making them an…
In recent years, workplaces and educational institutes have widely adopted virtual meeting platforms. This has led to a growing interest in analyzing and extracting insights from these meetings, which requires effective detection and…
Cloud services have been used very widely, but configuration of the parameters, including the efficient allocation of resources, is an important objective for the system architect. The article is devoted to solving the problem of choosing…
Data grid is a distributed computing architecture that integrates a large number of data and computing resources into a single virtual data management system. It enables the sharing and coordinated use of data from various resources and…
Upon the expansion of Cloud Computing and the positive outlook of organizations with regard to the movements towards using cloud computing and their expanding utilization of such valuable processing method, as well as the solutions provided…
Agent Based Models are very popular in a number of different areas. For example, they have been used in a range of domains ranging from modeling of tumor growth, immune systems, molecules to models of social networks, crowds and computer…
The article proposes a model for the configuration management of open systems. The model aims at validation of configurations against given specifications. An extension of decision graphs is proposed to express specifications. The proposed…
We consider a registration-based approach for localizing sensor networks from range measurements. This is based on the assumption that one can find overlapping cliques spanning the network. That is, for each sensor, one can identify…
This paper provides an outline of a formal approach that we are developing for modelling Virtual Organisations (VOs) and their Breeding Environments (VBEs). We propose different levels of representation for the functional structures and…
Computing technology has gotten cheaper and more powerful, allowing users to have a growing number of personal computing devices at their disposal. While this trend is beneficial for the user, it also creates a growing management burden for…
Virtualization technology reduces cloud operational cost by increasing cloud resource utilization level. The incorporation of virtualization within cloud data centers can severely degrade cloud performance if not properly managed. Virtual…
