Networks of timed automata (NTA) are widely used to model distributed real-time systems. Quite often in the literature, the automata are allowed to share clocks. This is a problem ...
Designing a distributed fault tolerance algorithm requires careful analysis of both fault models and diagnosis strategies. A system will fail if there are too many active faults, ...
The wireless sensor network community approached netabstractions as an open question, allowing answers to emerge with time and experience. The Trickle algorithm has become a basic...

Sensor networks are widely used in many applications for collecting information from the physical environment. In these applications, it is usually necessary to track the relation...
With hundreds of millions of users already today, virtual worlds will become an important factor in tomorrow's media landscape. In a virtual world, users are represented by s...
