This paper addresses the problem of optimizing the packet transmission schedule in an ad hoc network with end-toend delay constraints. The emphasis is to determine the proper rela...
The tuple space coordination model is one of the most interesting coordination models for open distributed systems due to its space and time decoupling and its synchronization pow...
Software components are modular and can enable post-deployment update, but their high overhead in runtime and memory is prohibitive for many embedded systems. This paper proposes ...
We study the specification of access control policy in large-scale distributed systems. We present Cassandra, a language and system for expressing policy, and the results of a sub...
Conformal geometry is in the core of pure mathematics. Conformal structure is more flexible than Riemaniann metric but more rigid than topology. Conformal geometric methods have p...
