Wireless sensor network applications, similarly to other distributed systems, often require a scalable time synchronization service enabling data consistency and coordination. Thi...
— In this paper, we present Orchestrator, an active resource orchestration framework for mobile context monitoring. Emerging pervasive environments will introduce a PAN-scale sen...
Abstract. The authors of this paper have all developed a framework that allows runtime adaptation of software systems. Based on our experiences, we wish to summarize common pitfall...
