—Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) is a popular design paradigm for distributed systems today. Its dynamics and loose coupling are predestined for self-adaptive systems. This a...
Abstract— Emergent wide-area distributed systems like computational grids present opportunities for large scientific applications. On these systems, communication mechanisms hav...
Group communication primitives have broad utility as building blocks for distributed applications. The challenge is to create and maintain the distributed structures that support ...
