We present a specification for a new, localized group membership service that maintains the membership status of adjacent nodes – called neighbors – in a mobile distributed s...
We present DRR-gossip, an energy-efficient and robust aggregate computation algorithm in wireless sensor networks. We prove that the DRR-gossip algorithm requires O(n) messages a...
Abstract. The ambient calculus is a calculus of computation that allows active processes (mobile ambients) to move between sites. A firewall is said to be protective whenever it d...
