Total Order Broadcast protocols are important tools to ensure coherence across distributed systems. Contrarily to classical distributed systems, pervasive systems bring important ...
Abstract. Runtime detection of contextual properties is one of the primary approaches to enabling context-awareness. Existing property detection schemes implicitly assume that cont...
Resource aware operation of sensor networks requires adaptive re-organization to dynamically adapt to the operational environment. A complex dynamical system of interacting compone...
In this paper we show a novel middleware approach for pervasise applications that communicate via an XMLbased distributed virtual shared information space. This approach extends s...
Timeliness in conventional real-time systems is addressed by employing well-known scheduling techniques that guarantee the execution of a number of tasks within certain deadlines. ...
