Modern single and multi-processor computer systems incorporate, either directly or through a LAN, a number of storage devices with diverse performance characteristics. These stora...
We describe a VRML/Java-based virtual environment that is populated with heterogeneous articulated agents. In this simulated environment, agents compete for collecting certain obj...
Nomadic computing environments are composed of heterogeneous mobile computing domains. Unfortunately, the service discovery platforms suitable for each domain are scarcely interop...
