Resource discovery is a problem common to almost all distributed systems. Instead of resulting in a one or a small number of discovery mechanisms, completely different and incompa...
To focus the comparison of languages for model checking and transformation on criteria that matter in practical development, there is an urgent need for more, and more realistic, ...
This paper suggests an evolutionary approach to design coordination strategies, a key issue in distributed intelligent systems. We focus on competitive strategies in the form of f...
In a recent paper by Hellerstein [15], a tight relationship was conjectured between the number of strata of a Datalog¬ program and the number of “coordination stages” require...
We present a class of richly structured, undirected hidden variable models suitable for simultaneously modeling text along with other attributes encoded in different modalities. O...
