On Integrating Heterogeneous Locating Services

by Hiroki Takatsuka, Sachio Saiki, Shinsuke Matsumoto, Masahide Nakamura
"... Abstract. This paper presents a unified locating service, KULOCS, which horizontally integrates the existing heterogeneous locating ser-vices. Focusing on technology-independent elements [when], [where] and [who] in querying locations of objects, KULOCS integrates data and op-erations of the existin ..."

The physiology of the grid: An open grid services architecture for distributed systems integration

by Ian Foster , 2002
"... In both e-business and e-science, we often need to integrate services across distributed, heterogeneous, dynamic “virtual organizations ” formed from the disparate resources within a single enterprise and/or from external resource sharing and service provider relationships. This integration can be t ..."

The design and implementation of an intentional naming system

by William Adjie-Winoto, Elliot Schwartz, Hari Balakrishnan, Jeremy Lilley - 17TH ACM SYMPOSIUM ON OPERATING SYSTEMS PRINCIPLES (SOSP '99) PUBLISHED AS OPERATING SYSTEMS REVIEW, 34(5):186--201, DEC. 1999 , 1999
"... This paper presents the design and implementation of the Intentional Naming System (INS), a resource discovery and service location system for dynamic and mobile networks of devices and computers. Such environments require a naming system that is (i) expressive, to describe and make requests based o ..."

Tor: The secondgeneration onion router,”

by Roger Dingledine - in 13th USENIX Security Symposium. Usenix, , 2004
"... Abstract We present Tor, a circuit-based low-latency anonymous communication service. This second-generation Onion Routing system addresses limitations in the original design by adding perfect forward secrecy, congestion control, directory servers, integrity checking, configurable exit policies, an ..."

Global Sourcing

by Pol Antràs, Elhanan Helpman - Journal of Political Economy
"... We present a North-South model of international trade in which differentiated products are developed in the North. Sectors are populated by final-good producers who differ in productivity levels. On the basis of productivity and sectoral characteristics, firms decide whether to integrate into the pr ..."

in which firms with different productivity levels choose different ownership structures and supplier locations. We then study the effects of withinsectoral heterogeneity and variations in industry characteristics on the relative prevalence of these organizational forms. I.

A Distributed Resource Management Architecture that Supports Advance Reservations and Co-Allocation

by Ian Foster, Carl Kesselman, Craig Lee, Bob Lindell, Klara Nahrstedt, Alain Roy
"... The realization of end-to-end quality of service (QoS) guarantees in emerging network-based applications requires mechanisms that support first dynamic discovery and then advance or immediate reservation of resources that will often be heterogeneous in type and implementation and independently contr ..."

Start-time Fair Queuing: A Scheduling Algorithm for Integrated Services Packet Switching Networks

by Pawan Goyal, Harrick M. Vin, Haichen Cheng - In Proceedings of the ACM SIGCOMM '96 Conference on Applications, Technologies, Architectures, and Protocols for Computer Communication , 1996
"... We present Start-time Fair Queuing (SFQ) algorithm that is computationally efficient, achieves fairness regardless of variation in a server capacity, and has the smallest fairness measure among all known fair scheduling algorithms. We analyze its throughput, single server delay, and end-to-end delay ..."
Abstract - Cited by 191 (12 self) - Add to MetaCart
-to-end delay guarantee for variable rate Fluctuation Constrained (FC) and Exponentially Bounded Fluctuation (EBF) servers. We show that SFQ is better suited than Weighted Fair Queuing for integrated services networks and it is strictly better than Self Clocked Fair Queuing. To support heterogeneous services

GeoCast - Geographic Addressing and Routing

by Julio Navas, Tomasz Imielinski , 1997
"... In the near future GPS will be widely used, thus allowing a broad variety of location dependent services such as direction giving, navigation, etc. In this paper we propose and evaluate a routing and addressing method to integrate geographic coordinates into the Internet Protocol to enable the creat ..."
