In this paper, we present a consensus algorithm for synchronous distributed systems using cooperating mobile agents. The algorithm is designed within a framework for mobile agent ...
We describe a language providing concepts for modeling autonomous entities (agents) and cooperating entities (groups). Agents are the execution units of a GroupLog program. Each a...
This paper presents a new concept for accurate modeling and timing simulationof electronicsystems integrated in a typical VHDL design environment, taking into account the requirem...
This work investigates the use of reconfigurable devices as computing platform for self-organizing embedded systems. Those usually consist of a set of distributed, autonomous node...
—This paper deals with decentralized, QoS-aware middleware for checkpointing arrangement in Mobile Grid (MoG) computing systems. Checkpointing is more crucial in MoG systems than...
