This work describes the proposal of a set of mechanisms to be applied in distributed component-based systems to allow the development of real-time applications capable of offering...
Transactional Memory is a concurrent programming API in which concurrent threads synchronize via transactions (instead of locks). Although this model has mostly been studied in the...
The emergence of Internet, Intranet, local area networks, and ad hoc wireless networks introduces a plethora of new problems in information processing. In order to overcome these p...
Abstract. Wireless sensor networks benefit from communication protocols that reduce power requirements by avoiding frame collision. Time Division Media Access methods schedule tra...
— Mutual exclusion is one of the well-studied fundamental primitives in distributed systems. However, the emerging P2P systems bring forward several challenges that can’t be co...
