This paper identifies node affinity as an important property for scalable general-purpose locks. Nonuniform communication architectures (NUCAs), for example CCNUMAs built from a f...
Physical proximity and appearance guide people to interact with each other in different ways [1,6]. However, in Video-Mediated Communication (VMC), these are distorted in various ...
Vehicular networks are emerging as a new distributed system environment with myriad possible applications. Most studies on vehicular networks are carried out via simulation, given...
This paper presents narrative pictograms, diagrams designed to convey the abstract concepts of a software agreement. Narrative pictograms arose out of a need to increase the chanc...
—Recent research in pervasive computing has shown that context-awareness and dynamic adaptation are fundamental requirements of mobile distributed applications. However, most app...
