Physically-based modeling has been used in the past to support a variety of interactive modeling tasks including free-form surface design, mechanism design, constrained drawing, a...
In complex systems, like robot plants, applications are built on top of a set of components, or devices. Each of them has particular individual constraints, and there are also log...
A performance model for the interaction of agents in mobile agent systems is presented. Two interaction models, namely the remote procedure call and the agent migration are conside...
