In a connected world, spare CPU cycles are up for grabs, if you only make its obtention easy
enough. In this paper we present a distributed evolutionary computation system that uses …

Abstract This chapter describes Aneka-Federation, a decentralized and distributed system
that combines enterprise Clouds, overlay networking, and structured peer-to-peer …

This research papers examines the state-of-the-art in the area of P2P networks/computation.
It attempts to identify the challenges that confront the community of P2P researchers and …

This paper proposes a decentralized and fault‐tolerant software system for the purpose of
managing Desktop Grid resources. Its main design principle is to eliminate the need for a …

A new approach for non-blind watermarking of still gray level images in the wavelet domain.
The method uses the human visual system (HVS) characteristic, and an innovative entropy …

Motivated by the needs and success of projects such as SETI@ home and genome@ home,
we propose an architecture for a sustainable large-scale peer-to-peer environment for …

The peer-to-peer paradigm has had large success in content distribution and multimedia
communication applications on the Internet. In a peer-to-peer network, the participating …

Currently, cycle sharing over the Internet is a one-way deal. Computer owners only have
one role in the process: to donate their computers' idle time. This is due to the fact that it is …

This paper introduces jsEO, a new evolutionary computation library that is executed in web
browsers, as it is written in Javascript. The library allows the rapid development of …

Cycle-stealing P2P applications need to contend with a transient node population, which
requires specialised approaches to be formulated to achieve fault-tolerance. This research …
