Heterogeneity-Aware Distributed Access Structure
Alejandra N Gonzalez-Beltran, Paul J. Milligan, Paul Sage · 2005
Efficient access to distributed and dynamic multidimensional data is vital for applications in large, heterogeneous, decentralized, resource-sharing environments such as grids and peer-to-peer systems. Most systems providing this functionality assume homogeneous participants. This paper proposes HADAS, an access structure exploiting heterogeneity to build a self-aware adaptive information system.
