    Resource Discovery in Grid Systems: a Survey
    (Inderscience Enterprises Ltd., 2010) Hameurlain, Abdelkader; Çokuslu, Deniz; Erciyeş, Kayhan
    Resource Discovery (RD) is one of the key issues in successful Grid systems. Yet, new methodologies for RD are constantly researched owing to the dynamicity, heterogeneity and large-scale characteristics of Grids. Recently, synergy and convergence between Grid, Agent and Peer-to-Peer (P2P) systems were pointed out clearly. This paper provides a survey and a qualitative comparison of the most promising approaches (P2P techniques and agent systems) for RD. Viability of Grid systems relies mainly on efficient integration of P2P techniques and mobile agent (MA) systems to bring scaling and decentralised control properties to Grids.

    A Maximum Degree Self-Stabilizing Spanning Tree Algorithm
    (Springer Verlag, 2010) Çokuslu, Deniz; Erciyeş, Kayhan; Hameurlain, Abdelkader
    Spanning trees are fundamental topological structures in distributed environments which ease many applications that require frequent communication between nodes. In this paper, we examine and compare two spanning tree construction algorithms which rely on classical and self stabilization approach. Then, we propose a new self-stabilizing spanning tree construction algorithm which uses maximum degree heuristic while choosing the root node. We show experimentally that our new algorithm provides smaller tree diameters than the two existing approaches with favorable run-times. © 2011 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.
