Large-scale and dynamically changing distributed systems such as the Grid, peer-to-peer overlays, etc., need to collect several kinds of global statistics in a decentralized manne...
We define a Mobile Database Community (MDBC) as a dynamic collection of autonomous mobile databases in which each database user can access databases in the community through a wir...
Dealing with imprecise information is a common characteristic in real-world problems. Specifically, when the source of the information are physical sensors, a level of noise in t...
Particle filtering algorithms can be used for the monitoring of dynamic systems with continuous state variables and without any constraints on the form of the probability distribu...
Data grids deal with a huge amount of data regularly. It is a fundamental challenge to ensure efficient accesses to such widely distributed data sets. Creating replicas to a suita...
