This paper describes the implementation of a workflow management system to support mobile GIS workgroup applications and highlights the design of the workflow definition language t...
Software systems must face two challenges today: growing complexity and increasing parallelism in the underlying computational models. The problem of increased complexity is often...
Many adaptative context-aware middleware exist and mostly rely on so-called vertical architectures that offer a functional decomposition for context-awareness. This architecture ...
