This paper describes an architecture that provides support for quality of service (QoS) specification and enforcement in heterogeneous distributed computing systems. The Quartz Qo...
Abstract. Symmetry reduction is a technique to alleviate state explosion in model checking by replacing a model of replicated processes with a bisimilar quotient model. The size of...
Large and complex software systems require expressive notations for representing their software architecture. In this context Architecture Description Languages (ADLs) can be used...
A Multi-agent system (MAS) is an open distributed system of agents. The agents in a MAS may form certain specific groups, where agents in each group jointly engage in solving a s...
This article presents a distributed agent-based architecture that can process the visual information obtained by stereoscopic cameras. The system is embedded within a global projec...
