Abstract--As a replacement for the fast-fading GloballySynchronous model, we have defined a flexible design style called GRLS, for Globally-Ratiochronous, Locally-Synchronous, whic...
Web communities involve networks of loosely coupled data sources. Members in those communities should be able to pose queries and gather results from all data sources in the networ...
— We consider a distributed system modeled as a possibly large network of automata. Planning in this system consists in selecting and organizing actions in order to reach a goal ...
Distributed-memory programs are often written using a global address space: any process can name any memory location on any processor. Some languages completely hide the distincti...
