With the proliferation of Grid computing, potentially vast computational resources are available for solving complex problems in science and engineering. However, writing, deployi...
A challenge for pervasive computing is the seamless integration of computer support with users’ activities in a very dynamic setting, with deep human and resource mobility. Port...

The widespread adoption of embedded microprocessor-based systems for safety critical applications mandates the use of co-design tools able to evaluate system dependability at ever...
Abstract. We focus on discrete event systems with a structure of parallel processing, synchronization, and noconcurrency. We use max-plus algebra, which is an effective approach fo...
This paper presents a framework prototype for sentient environments. The framework provides a generic interface to the applications for interacting with sentient artefacts in a un...
