Requirements for a traffic monitoring system can be very demanding as both privacy and performance aspects have to be taken into account jointly. Moreover, the legislation sets fo...
This work describes the proposal of a set of mechanisms to be applied in distributed component-based systems to allow the development of real-time applications capable of offering...
Scientists are increasingly using large distributed systems built from commodity off-the-shelf components to perform scientific computation. Grid computing has expanded the scale ...
