In mobile ad hoc networks, synchronous communication mechanisms appear to be not suitable, since these assume that the involved entities are present at the same time during the in...
Abstract. Asynchronous communications are prominent in distributed and mobile systems. Often consystems consider an abstract point of view with synchronous communications. However ...
Designers of distributed embedded systems face many challenges in determining the appropriate tradeoffs to make when defining a system architecture or retargeting an existing desi...
In 10 , an algebra for timed automata has been introduced. In this article, we introduce a syntactic characterisation of nite timed automata in terms of that process algebra. We s...
The characteristics of mobile environments, with the possibility of frequent disconnections and fluctuating bandwidth, have forced a rethink of traditional middleware. In particu...
