The recent advancement of solid freeform fabrication, design techniques and fundamental understanding of material properties in functionally graded materials has made it possible ...
Business processes involve interactions among autonomous partners. We propose that these interactions be specified modularly as protocols. Protocols can be published, enabling imp...
In this paper, we examine the composition of firstclass protocols for multi-agent systems. First-class protocols are protocols that exist as executable specifications that agent...
We introduce the Composite Endpoint Protocol (CEP) which efficiently composes a set of transmission elements to support high speed flows which exceed the capabilities of a single...
