All but the most briefly used systems must evolve as their mission and roles change over time. Evolution in the context of large distributed systems is extraordinarily complex bec...
Requirements from new types of applications call for new database system solutions. Computational science applications performing distributed computations on Grid networks with req...
Abstract--The development of large-scale distributed multiagent systems in open dynamic environments is a challenge. System behavior is often not predictable and can only be evalua...

The aim of dynamic reconfiguration is to allow a system to evolve incrementally from one configuration to another at run-time, without restarting it or taking it offline. In recen...
A number of emerging distributed platforms include xed and robust workstations but, like dynamic and pervasive networks, are often built from mobile and resource-constrained device...
