— Control systems for critical infrastructures like national power grids make increasingly use of open technologies and protocols, and the Internet. In this environment, the risk...
Through this paper, we call for a distributed, internet-based collaboration to address one of the worst plagues of our present world, malaria. The spirit is a non-proprietary peer...
Distributed System design is a highly complicated and non-trivial task. The problem is characterised by the need to design multi-threaded, multi-processor, and multimedia systems....
The public nature of discussion in open source projects provides a valuable resource for understanding the mechanisms of open source software development. In this paper we explore...
Today, VLSI systems for computationally demanding applications are being built as Systems-on-Chip (SoCs) with a distributed memory sub-system which is shared by a large number of ...
