Some popular computing technologies, such as ubiquitous computing, grid computing and thin-client computing, bring people to a much more distributed and pervasive computing enviro...
This paper describes the main ideas of DRMTP (Distributed Real-time Multicast Transport Protocol), an adaptive application-level protocol which allows cooperative multicast of rea...
We propose group communication for agent coordination within “active rooms” and other pervasive computing scenarios featuring strict real-time requirements, inherently unrelia...
