An increasing number of distributed applications are being constructed by composing them out of existing applications. The resulting applications can be very complex in structure,...
We present the architecture of nreduce, a distributed virtual machine which uses parallel graph reduction to run programs across a set of computers. It executes code written in a ...

We argue that it is useful to study classes of Multi-Agent System (MAS) architectures, corresponding to architectural styles in addition to particular tures. In this work we focus ...

Abstract This paper is sort of a confession. Issues of synchrony, asynchrony, and synchronization, arise frequently in designing embedded systems from components, like everyone I k...
Comprehensive exploration of the design space parameters at the system-level is a crucial task to evaluate architectural tradeoffs accounting for both energy and performance const...
