This paper explores the application of Base Object Models (BOMs), an emerging XML standard, for rapidly composing simulations and simulation environments. We examine how pattern c...
— We propose a new framework for providing robust location detection in emergency response systems, based on the theory of identifying codes. The key idea of this approach is to ...

During a disaster, emergency response operations can benefit from the establishment of a wireless ad hoc network. We propose the use of autonomous robots that move inside a disas...
—In this paper, we develop an analytical framework which explains the emergence of superpeer networks on execution of the commercial peer-to-peer bootstrapping protocols by incom...
