CPU utilization control has recently been demonstrated to be an effective way of meeting end-to-end deadlines for distributed real-time systems running in unpredictable environmen...
Abstract. This paper summarizes a novel framework, called “physicomimetics,” for the distributed control of large collections of mobile physical agents in sensor networks. The ...
Web services are often employed to create wide distributed evolvable applications from existing components that constitute a service-based software system. ServiceOriented Archite...
Many embedded control systems comprise several control loops that are closed over a network of computation nodes. In such systems, complex timing behavior and communication lead t...
Building open distributed systems is an even more challenging task than building distributed systems, as their components are loosely synchronised, can move, become disconnected, ...
