In large-scale, self-organized and distributed systems, such as peer-to-peer (P2P) overlays and wireless sensor networks (WSN), a small proportion of nodes are likely to be more c...
In this paper we present a robust software infrastructure for metacomputing. The system is intended to be used by others as a building block for large and powerful computational g...
This paper studies the problem of realizing a common software clock among a large set of nodes without an external time reference (i.e., internal clock synchronization), any centr...
The paper describes experiences, ideas, and problems that were discovered while developing a digital rights management (DRM) extension to an XML browser. The supported rights desc...
Observing the evolution of very large software systems is difficult because of the sheer amount of information that needs to be analyzed and because the changes performed in the s...
