The dynamic nature of a resource-sharing environment means that applications must be able to adapt their behavior in response to changes in system status. Predictions of future sy...
Redundancy can improve the availability of components in service-oriented systems. However, predicting and quantifying the effects of different redundancy strategies can be a comp...
In surveillance and tracking applications, wireless sensor nodes collectively monitor the existence of intruding targets. In this paper, we derive closed form results for predicti...

— A recent trend for data-intensive computations is to use pay-as-you-go execution environments that scale transparently to the user. However, providers of such environments must...
We explain the use of PEPA nets in documenting high-level designs of mobile code and mobile computing systems. This modelling language (which allows the modeller to differentiate ...
