Mobile agents are autonomous programs that migrate from one machine to another within a network on behalf of a client, thus, they are ideal for mobile computing environments since ...
Abstract. In this paper we present a new modelling approach for dependability evaluation and sensitivity analysis of Scheduled Maintenance Systems, based on a Deterministic and Sto...
In trust negotiation and other distributed proving systems, networked entities cooperate to form proofs that are justified by collections of certified attributes. These attributes...
We introduce some new models of infinite-state transition systems. The basic model, called a (reversal-bounded) counter machine (CM), is a nondeterministic finite automaton augment...
Mobile sensing is difficult without power. Emerging Computational RFIDs (CRFIDs) provide both sensing and generalpurpose computation without batteries--instead relying on small ca...
