Inspired by bacterial motility, we propose an algorithm for adaptation over networks with mobile nodes. The nodes have limited abilities and they are allowed to cooperate with the...
In this paper, we introduce an efficient technique for checkpointing multithreaded applications. Our approach makes use of processes constructed around the ARMOR (Adaptive Reconfi...
