Abstract—We are developing a concurrent, agent-based approach to complex systems simulation as part of the CoSMoS project. In such simulations an agent’s behaviour can typicall...
—In the field of distributed computing, there are many round-based algorithms to solve fundamental problems, such as leader election and distributed consensus. Due to the nature...
Abstract—Granuloma is a medical term for a ball-like collection of immune cells that attempts to remove foreign substances from a host organism. This response is a special type o...
Sensornets provide coverage of physical phenomena over extended periods, perhaps months or years. However, active nodes may deplete finite batteries within days, and are prone to...
—This paper presents a novel approach to the design of self-adaptive service-oriented applications based on a new model called service tiles. The approach allows designers to dev...
