This paper is concerned with reducing communication costs when executing distributed user tasks in a sensor network. We take a service-oriented abstraction of sensor networks, whe...
Location is one of the most important contexts used in the applications in the pervasive computing environments . It helps the application do the right thing at the right place. O...
Abstract. Resource constrained systems often are programmed using an eventbased model. Many applications do not lend themselves well to an event-based approach, but preemptive mult...
We present a new approach for reasoning about liveness properties of distributed systems, represented as automata. Our approach is based on simulation relations, and requires reas...
Abstract. This paper explores the use of temporal logics in the context of communication protocols for multiagent systems. We concentrate on frameworks where protocols are used to ...
