The algorithm designed in [12, 15] was the very first distributed algorithm to solve the mutual exclusion problem in complete networks by using a dynamic logical tree structure as...
This paper analyzes a language for actions and the deontic modalities over actions -- i.e., the modalities permitted, forbidden and obligatory. The work is based on: (1) an action...
Dynamic reconfiguration allows to selectively substitute blocks of logic at run-time in order to improve the area efficiency of a FPGA design. This paper presents the design of a ...
Within the last years, especially since the work proposed by Dung in 1995, argumentation has emerged as a central issue in Artificial Intelligence. With the so called argumentatio...
To anticipate or not to anticipate -- that is the question, regarding adaptive middleware in the area of ubiquitous computing. Anticipation can guarantee that both the adapted and...
