We present Vector LLVA, a virtual instruction set architecture (VISA) that exposes extensive static information about vector parallelism while avoiding the use of hardware-speci...
A voting protocol for decision-making in virtual organizations is presented. In an agent-based virtual organization the functions of formation, management and dissolution of the o...

Abstract. Despite extensive theoretical work on process-calculi, virtual machine specifications and implementations of actual computational models are still scarce. This paper pre...
The flexible integration of a range of disparate IT applications is a key requirement for today's global enterprises. The virtual enterprise, formed by a collection of collab...
