A Robotic System is being developed to automate the crucible packing process in the CZ semiconductor wafer production. It requires the delicate manipulation and packing of highly ...
This paper discusses the implementation and performance of bounded voting: a new object replication protocol designed for use in mobile and weakly-connected environments. We show ...
We introduce a conceptual framework that articulates the mechanics of collaboration for shared-workspace groupware: the low level actions and interactions that must be carried out...
This paper describes an algebra for use with parallel object databases, and in particular ODMG compliant databases with OQL. Although there have been many proposals for parallel r...
