Non-photorealistically rendered (NPR) immersive virtual environments (IVEs) can facilitate
conceptual design in architecture by enabling preliminary design sketches to be previewed …

Research into computing resource markets has mainly considered the allocative fairness of
market mechanisms. It has not been discussed how a large variety of resource types …

We study the problem of fairness design. Specifically, we focus on approximation algorithms
for indivisible items with supporting envy-free bundle prices. We present the first polynomial …

We study the problem of identifying prices to support a given allocation of items to bidders in
an envy-free way. A bidder will envy another bidder if she would prefer to obtain the other …

In distributed computer networks where resources are under decentralized control, selfish
users will generally not work towards one common goal, such as maximizing the overall …

Applying economic principles to grids is deemed promising to improve the overall value
provided by such systems. End users can influence the allocation of resources by reporting …

This paper investigates scheduling loosely coupled task-bundles in highly heterogeneous
distributed systems. Two allocation quality metrics are used in pay-per-service distributed …

In verteilten Rechensystemen (bspw. im Cluster und Grid Computing) kann eine Knappheit
der zur Verfügung stehenden Ressourcen auftreten. Hier haben Marktmechanismen das …

Gemotion explores the potential innovation in the convergence of the media content industry
and traditional culture that may become more commonplace in the future. In this paper, I will …

Markets of computing resources typically consist of a cluster (or a multi-cluster) and jobs that
arrive over time and request computing resources in exchange for payment. In this paper we …
