Growth in the complexity of computing systems, in the dynamism of the environments they operate in, and the need for timely adaptations as conditions change, now pose significant...
Distributed programming is applicable in a wide range of domains such as control systems. These systems are subject to mutable environments and must also provide a time varying ad...

This paper presents a biologically inspired approach to two basic problems in modular self-reconfigurable robots: adaptive communication in self-reconfigurable and dynamic networks...
We describe methods of identifying and exploiting sharing patterns in multi-threaded DSM applications. Active correlation tracking is used to determine the affinity, or amount of ...
Elasticity of cloud computing environments provides an economic incentive for automatic resource allocation of stateful systems running in the cloud. However, these systems have t...
