We present a compositional semantics of synchronous systems that captures both safety and progress properties of such systems. The fair synchronous transitions systems (fsts) mode...
Recent research in embedded computing indicates that packing multiple processor cores on the same die is an effective way of utilizing the ever-increasing number of transistors. T...
Wide-area distribution raises significant performance problems for traditional query processing techniques as data access becomes less predictable due to link congestion, load imb...
Agents in agreement protocols play well distinct roles. Proposers propose values to the acceptors, which will accept proposals and inform the learners so they detect that an agree...
Currently, the interest in Ambient Intelligence (or AmI) has increased exponentially due to the widespread use of portable devices. Users demand more and more functionality from t...
