Abstract. Motivated by parallel optimization, we study the SelfAdaptation algorithm for large population sizes. We first show that the current version of this algorithm does not r...
The Workflow Management System AltaVista Works has been extended to be able to process workflows in a distributed, partly even parallel manner. Build-time data are replicated over...
The paper discusses the focus of Requirements Engineering in workflow application development. Its core thesis is that the workflow application and the new business process it supp...
We present a protocol for the distributed detection of garbage in a distributed system subject to common failures such as lost and duplicated messages, network partition, dismount...
The chief purpose of this paper is to appraise the feasibility of Girard’s linear logic as a specification language for parallel processes. To this end we propose an interpreta...
