Advances in the creation of computational materials are transforming our thinking about relations between the physical and digital. In this paper we characterize this transformati...
Multiagent systems are often characterized by complex, and sometimes unpredictable interactions amongst their autonomous components. While these systems can provide robust and sca...

A pervasive requirement of distributed systems is to deal with churn — change in the set of participating nodes due to joins, graceful leaves, and failures. A high churn rate ca...
Based on the FOCUS theory of distributed systems (see [Broy, Stølen 01]) that are composed of interacting components we introduce a formal model of services and layered architectu...
A novel combination of emergent algorithmic methods, powerful computational platforms and supporting infrastructure is described. These complementary tools and technologies are us...
