A distinguishing characteristic of wireless sensor networks is the opportunity to exploit characteristics of the application at lower layers. This approach is encouraged by device...
In complex distributed applications, a problem is often decomposed into a set of subproblems that are distributed to multiple agents. We formulate this class of problems with a tw...
Many grid applications need to transfer large amounts of data between the geographically distributed sites of a grid environment. Network heterogeneity between these sites makes t...
Huge amounts of data are stored in autonomous, geographically distributed sources. The discovery of previously unknown, implicit and valuable knowledge is a key aspect of the expl...
This paper presents a modification of GLADE —the current GNAT implementation of the Ada 95 Distributed Systems Annex (DSA)— to support the development of distributed applicatio...
