متن کاملAn Enhanced MSS-based checkpointing Scheme for Mobile Computing Environment
Mobile computing systems are made up of different components among which Mobile Support Stations (MSSs) play a key role. This paper proposes an efficient MSS-based non-blocking coordinated checkpointing scheme for mobile computing environment. In the scheme suggested nearly all aspects of checkpointing and their related overheads are forwarded to the MSSs and as a result the workload of Mobile ...

This paper will introduce a new method to obtain the order weightsof the Ordered Weighted Averaging (OWA) operator. We will first show therelation between fuzzy quantifiers and neat OWA operators and then offer anew combination of them. Fuzzy quantifiers are applied for soft computingin modeling the optimism degree of the decision maker. In using neat operators,the ordering of the inputs is not...
متن کاملWeighted-HR: An Improved Hierarchical Grid Resource Discovery
Grid computing environments include heterogeneous resources shared by a large number of computers to handle the data and process intensive applications. In these environments, the required resources must be accessible for Grid applications on demand, which makes the resource discovery as a critical service. In recent years, various techniques are proposed to index and discover the Grid resource...
