This paper addresses the unavoidable problem of dynamic reconfiguration in component-based system with a hierarchical component model. The presented solution is based on (1) allowi...
Conventional virtual coupling is designed mainly for stabilizing the virtual environment (VE) and it thus may have poor performances. This paper proposes a novel adaptive virtual c...
We describe an approach for pipelining nested data collections in scientific workflows. Our approach logically delimits arbitrarily nested collections of data tokens using special...
Component platforms play a major role in current distributed information systems. As these systems evolve, components need to be upgraded without breaking the consistency of compo...
