Flexbility and deployment simplicity are among the numerous advantages of wireless links when compared to standard wired communications. However, challenges do remain high for wire...
Service-oriented computing proposes services as building blocks which can be composed to complex systems. To reason about the correctness of a service, its communication protocol n...
The TCP/IP protocols and Sockets API underlie much of modern computation, but their semantics have historically been very complex and ill-defined. The real standard is the de fact...

An emerging tapestry of computations will soon integrate systems around the globe. It will evolve without central control. Its complexity will be vast. We need new ideas, tools an...
Content-based routing is the primary form of communication within publish/subscribe systems. In those systems data transmission is performed by sophisticated overlay networks of c...
