Abstract--Mobile devices such as smart phones are increasing permeating society. With strides in computational power, coupled with the ability to connect to other small devices, sm...
Context-aware applications rely on the ability to perceive the state of the surrounding environment. In this paper, we address a class of such applications where real-time guarant...
In this paper, we present TOTA (“Tuples On The Air”), a novel middleware to coordinate the movements of a large number of autonomous components (i.e. agents) in a ubiquitous co...
Field-based coordination is a very promising approach for a wide range of application scenarios in modern dynamic networks. To implement such an approach, one can rely on distribu...
Context awareness has emerged as an important element in distributed computing. It offers mechanisms that allow applications to be aware of their environment and enable these appl...
