Abstract. To aid in building high-performance computational environments, INTERLACE offers a framework for linking reusable computational engines in a heterogeneous distributed sy...
The technology for building large knowledge bases (KBs) is yet to witness a breakthrough so that a KB can be constructed by the assembly of prefabricated knowledge components. Kno...

The maintenance of global integrity constraints in database federations is still a challenge since traditional integrity constraint management techniques cannot be applied to such ...
This paper considers distributed systems, defined as a collection of components interacting through interfaces. Components, interfaces and distributed systems are modeled as Petri...
Application systems in the earth observation area can be characterised as distributed, platform-inhomogeneous, complex, and cost intensive information systems. In order to manage t...
