Scenario-based design exploits the time-varying execution behavior of applications by dynamically adapting the system on which they run. This is a particularly interesting design ...
Two limitations of the current implementations of adaptive QoS behaviors are complexity associated with inserting them into common application contexts and lack of reusability acr...

We describe a novel approach for building a secure and fault tolerant data storage service in collaborative work environments, which uses perfect secret sharing schemes to store d...
We describe a system as a set of communicating concurrent programs. Quasi-static scheduling compiles the concurrent programs into a sequential one. It uses a Petri net as an inter...
