We address the requirements and design of bandwidth on demand networks in the context of grid services. Regardless of the deployment scenario for grid services (e.g., commercial o...
Advances in sensor and wireless technologies will enable thousands, or even millions of small but smart sensors to be deployed for a wide range of monitoring applications. The sen...
Abstract— This work presents an infrastructure that simplifies the development of distributed applications that can adapt automatically to nonfunctional properties of their comp...
Effective security mechanisms are essential to the widespread deployment of pervasive systems. Much of the research focus on security in pervasive computing has revolved around dis...
We present TOTA (“Tuples On The Air”), a novel middleware for supporting adaptive context-aware activities in dynamic network scenarios. The key idea in TOTA is to rely on spa...
