We present a first approach that combines the mobile agent and the compositional paradigms into a new agent-based compositional model. The aim of this work is to explore the capabi...
We show that the traditional notion of superposition as used for supporting parallel program design can subsume both composition and refinement relationships when non-deterministi...
Abstract--Composite microsystems that integrate mechanical and fluidic components with electronics are emerging as the next generation of system-on-a-chip. Custom microsystems are ...

Abstract. In the context of Services Oriented Architecture (Soa), complex systems are realized through the design of business–driven processes. Since the design of a complete pro...
This paper discusses experiences and lessons learned from the design of an open hypermedia system, one that integrates applications and data not "owned" by the hypermedi...
