This paper discusses extensions to the Rover toolkit for constructing reliable mobile-aware applications. The extensions improve upon the existing failure model, which only addres...
Abstract— Reinforcement learning algorithms have been successfully applied in robotics to learn how to solve tasks based on reward signals obtained during task execution. These r...
In table soccer, humans can not always thoroughly observe fast actions like rod spins and kicks. However, this is necessary in order to detect rule violations for example for tourn...
Abstract. A long-running transaction is an interactive component of a distributed system which must be executed as if it were a single atomic action. In principle, it should not be...
Grid environments enable users to share non-dedicated resources that lack performance guarantees. This paper describes the design of application-centric middleware components to a...
