This paper introduces a new programming model for distributed systems, distributed composite objects (DCO), to meet efficient implementation, transparency, and performance demands ...
Peer-to-peer networking is a hot buzzword that has been sweeping through the computing industry over the past year or so. Gnutella, as one of the first operational pure P2P systems...
We present DRR-gossip, an energy-efficient and robust aggregate computation algorithm in wireless sensor networks. We prove that the DRR-gossip algorithm requires O(n) messages a...
A swap instruction, which exchanges a value in memory with a value of a register, is available on many architectures. The primary application of a swap instruction has been for pro...
