Dynamic module replacement — the ability to hot swap a component’s implementation at runtime — is fundamental to supporting evolutionary change in long-lived and highlyavail...
We present an integrated approach for supporting in-network sensor data processing in dynamic and heterogeneous sensor networks. The concept relies on data stream processing techni...
In this paper, we study dynamic protocol update (DPU). Contrary to local code updates on-the-fly, DPU requires global coordination of local code replacements. We propose a novel ...
Whenever message-oriented middleware is used within applications which run on heterogeneous software systems of multiple partners, and middleware protocols have to be replaced or ...
This paper presents a biologically inspired approach to two basic problems in modular self-reconfigurable robots: adaptive communication in self-reconfigurable and dynamic networks...
