Ontologies are an emerging paradigm to support declarativity, interoperability, and intelligent services in many areas, such as Agent–based Computation, Distributed Information ...
The peer-to-peer (P2P) paradigm has emerged recently, mainly by file sharing systems like Napster or Gnutella and in terms of scalable distributed data structures. Because of the d...
—We consider a distributed shuffling algorithm for sharing data in a distributed network. Nodes executing the algorithm periodically contact each other and exchange data. The be...
Networks of timed automata (NTA) are widely used to model distributed real-time systems. Quite often in the literature, the automata are allowed to share clocks. This is a problem ...
VRML (the Virtual Reality Modeling Language) has brought 3D objects and virtual worlds to a large number of Internet users. While it provides a suitable basis for the platform ind...
