Typical applications of evolutionary optimization in static environments involve the approximation of the extrema of functions. For dynamic environments, the interest is not to lo...
In this paper, we propose DINPeer middleware to overcome limitations in current peer-to-peer (P2P) overlay systems. DINPeer exploits a spiral-ring method to discover an inner ring ...
Bounded model checking (BMC) is an automatic verification method that is based on a finite unfolding of the system’s transition relation. BMC has been successfully applied, in ...
We describe the design of a Windows file-system directory service that ensures the persistence, integrity, privacy, syntactic legality, and case-insensitive uniqueness of the name...

— In this paper, we propose to use coordinates-based mechanisms in a peer-to-peer architecture to predict Internet network distance (i.e. round-trip propagation and transmission ...
