In the weighted paging problem there is a weight (cost) for fetching each page into the cache. We design a randomized O(log k)-competitive online algorithm for the weighted paging...
Performance characteristics, such as response time, throughput and scalability, are key quality attributes of distributed applications. Current practice, however, rarely applies s...
We present a new approach for the management and enactment of deployment process by a deployment processor ORYA (Open enviRonment to deploY Applications). ORYA aims to integrate te...
This paper describes automatic protocol generation (APG for short), a novel mechanism to generate security protocols automatically. With APG, the protocol designer inputs the spec...
A variety of application domains are interactive in nature: a primary task involves responding to external actions. In this paper, we introduce explicit programming language suppor...
