About this book series

Scalable computing lies at the core of all complex applications. Topics on scalability include environments, such as autonomic, cloud, cluster, distributed, energy-aware, parallel, peer-to-peer, greed, grid and utility computing. These paradigms are necessary to promote collaboration between entities and resources, which are necessary and beneficial to complex scientific, industrial, and business applications. Such applications include weather forecasting, computational biology, telemedicine, drug synthesis, vehicular technology, design and fabrication, finance, and simulations. 

The Scalable Computing and Communications Book Series combines countless scalability topics in areas such as circuit and component design, software, operating systems, networking and mobile computing, cloud computing, computational grids, peer-to-peer systems, and high-performance computing.
