In this paper we propose a computational model for human-agent and agent-agent conversation. This model has two fundamental characteristics: (1) it takes into account the implicit ...
Distributed interactive systems often rely on platform information, used for example when migrating a user interface to a small-screen device, or when opportunistically recruiting...
Service-based systems are distributed computing systems with the major advantage of enabling rapid composition of distributed applications, such as collaborative research and deve...

Explosive increase in enduser computing on distributed systems requires that endusers develop application software by themselves. One solution is given as a formula of "a dom...
Mobile active computational entities introduce peculiar problems in the coordination of distributed application components. The paper surveys several coordination models for mobil...
