We describe a decentralized, adaptive mechanism for replica location in wide-area distributed systems. Unlike traditional, hierarchical (e.g, DNS) and more recent (e.g., CAN, Chor...
Much research has been done in fast communication on clusters and in protocols for supporting software shared memory across them. However, the end performance of applications that...
— This paper describes the design, fabrication, and experimental results of a programmable matter system capable of 2D shape formation through subtraction. The system is composed...
Although distributed Group Support Systems (GSS) are getting popular, there are still some limitations. One of the limitations is few substitutions for face-to-face (FTF) interact...
Adding distributed capabilities to existing programs has come to the forefront of software evolution. As a standard Java distributed technology, applets offer the advantages of be...
