Reconfigurable Architectures are good candidates for application accelerators that cannot be set in stone at production time. FPGAs however, often suffer from the area and perfor...
Nomadic computing environments are composed of heterogeneous mobile computing domains. Unfortunately, the service discovery platforms suitable for each domain are scarcely interop...
