A service-oriented approach to topology formation and resource discovery in wireless ad-hoc networks
… This thesis also addresses the issue of service discovery in mobile ad-hoc networks. We propose the use of a directory whose network location varies in an attempt to reduce traffic overhead driven by users’ hosts looking for service information. We refer to this scheme as the Service Directory …

A secure and scalable communication framework for inter-cloud services
… offers to deliver basic virtualized computing resources like storage, hardware, and networking as on-demand and dynamic services. However, a single cloud service provider does not have limitless resources to offer to its users, and increasingly users are demanding the features of extensibility …

A statistical mechanics approach for an effective, scalable, and reliable distributed load balancing scheme for grid networks
… throughput by taking advantage of many computing resources available in the network. To achieve a scalable and reliable Grid network system, the workload needs to be efficiently distributed among the resources accessible on the network. A novel distributed algorithm based on statistical mechanics …

Students' Criteria for Course Selection: Towards a Metadata Standard for Distributed Higher Education
… enough information to select courses. Internet resource discovery tools are readily available, however, users have difficulty selecting relevant resources. In part this is due to the lack of a standard for representation of Internet resources. An emerging solution is metadata. In the educational …

Integrating Adaptive services in Grid Resource Brokering
Grid computing is highly dynamic in nature where resources are subject to change due to performance degradation and node failure. The resources include processing elements, storage, network, and so on; they come from the interconnection of parallel machines, clusters, or any workstation. One of the …
