We study how decentralized agents can develop a shared vocabulary without global coordination. Answering this question can help us understand the emergence of many communication s...
: This is a position paper introducing blob computing: A Blob is a generic primitive used to structure a uniform computing substrate into an easier-to-program parallel virtual mach...
In this paper, we describe the unique security issues involved in healthcare domains. These have been addressed to the needs of the HealthAgents project. In the proposed approach,...
The use of sub-optimal digital systems can at times lead to high speed, efficient, costeffective structures that are sufficient to perform needed tasks. We describe here a system ...
In this work, we investigate various specification languages and their relation to Casl, the recently developed Common Algebraic Specification Language. In particular, we consider...
