This paper presents a CORBA-compliant middleware architecture that is more flexible and extensible compared to standard CORBA. The portable design of this architecture is easily in...
Fault tolerant algorithms are often designed under the t-out-of-n assumption, which is based on the assumption that all processes or components fail independently with equal proba...
Mobile agents offer a new possibility for the development of applications in distributed systems and are no longer a theoretical issue since different architectures for their impl...
