Abstract. This paper presents several engineering applications that involve distributed software services. Due to the complexity of these applications, an efficient and flexible se...
Geocast mechanisms allow a sender to transmit network packets to receivers residing at a certain geographical region. Geocast forms the basis for a number of location-based service...
Intelligent connected devices become a more vital part of our lives. In contrast to prior years, today embedded systems and devices are loosely coupled and cooperate with each oth...
