Representing and Reasoning about time and change is one of the primary issues in the area of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Knowledge Representation (KR). Despite the importance...
— Self-management has often been proposed as a means to reduce the growing complexity of administration in distributed systems. We argue that this can be achieved through aggress...
In this paper it is explained what Knowledge Management (KM) is and why it will play an important role in the future. This implies that KM is indeed more than just the sophisticate...
Abstract. This paper presents several engineering applications that involve distributed software services. Due to the complexity of these applications, an efficient and flexible se...
In this work we discuss a number of issues for the design of hypertext systems in an actor-based model of computation. We examine how the "traditional" basic concepts whi...
