One of the main issues that inhibit the development of contextaware mobile applications is the lack of systematic methods for sensor data acquisition. This lack, however, is a res...
Online auction systems have made remarkable progress in recent years. However, one of the most severe and persistent problems in such systems is shilling behavior, which is a type ...
Abstract. In the context of Services Oriented Architecture (Soa), complex systems are realized through the design of business–driven processes. Since the design of a complete pro...
Due to the ever increasing system complexity, deciding whether a given platform is sufficient to implement a set of applications under given constraints becomes a serious bottlene...
