This paper presents CCDM, a new architecture for management of devices, which collect environmental information and give effects to the environment. CCDM provides easy management ...
Abstract-- We consider problems where multiple agents cooperate to control their individual state so as to optimize a common objective while communicating with each other to exchan...
Publish/subscribe systems provide an efficient, event-based, wide-area distributed communications infrastructure. Large scale publish/subscribe systems are likely to employ compon...
Abstract. In many rate control models, a uniform weighted distortion has been assumed; that is, the DCT coefficients of the motioncompensation difference frames (residues) conform...
Abstract. For large distributed systems built from inexpensive components, one expects to see incessant failures. This paper proposes two models for such faults and analyzes two we...
