Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communications emerge to achieve ubiquitous communications
among all the networked devices. One challenging problem in M2M applications is to …

One challenging problem in Machine-to-Machine (M2M) applications is to efficiently
discover the resources provided by a huge number of heterogeneous devices. This paper …

A resource directory is a critical component of a grid architecture. P2P computing paradigm
could address some of the scalability issues that make distributed resource discovery …

Though resource discovery is a fundamental requirement in collaborative peer-to-peer, grid,
and cloud computing, very little is known about resource/query characteristics and their …

The efficiency of service discovery is a crucial point in the development of fully decentralized
middlewares intended to manage large scale computational grids. The work conducted on …

With the increasing number of computers on the Internet, there is a growing interest in
harnessing the unused and inexpensive computational resources over the Internet …

Grids are distributed systems aiming at the aggregation of geographically distributed
resources for high performance computing. Heterogeneity and volatility are the main …

As grids try to achieve optimal and balanced utilization of unused resources in a distributed
system, fast and efficient discovery of resource states is a key requirement. For small to …

We describe the main architecture and the design principles of the service/resource
discovery system (SRDS), a component of the XtreemOS operating system. XtreemOS is a …

Peer-to-peer systems (P2P) have attracted much current attention as a popular way to share
huge volumes of resources directly within peers. Efficient content search and load balancing …
