This paper introduces AntNet, a novel approach to the adaptive learning of routing tables in communications networks. AntNet is a distributed, mobile agents based Monte Carlo syst...
How to rapidly disseminate a large-sized file to many recipients is a fundamental problem in many applications, such as updating software patches and distributing large scientific ...
Abstract. Many distributed applications can be understood in terms of components interacting in an open environment. This interaction is not always uniform as the network may consi...
We present a new technique for generating a formal proof that an access request satisfies accesscontrol policy, for use in logic-based access-control frameworks. Our approach is t...
Classical distributed database systems monolithically offer distribution transparency and higher performance. This is made possible by making data available and closer to the appl...
