Overlay broker networks are an important part of an eventbased middleware. In this paper, we investigate the requirements of overlay broker networks and argue that using peer-to-p...
The scope of wireless sensor network (WSN) applications has traditionally been restricted by physical sensor coverage and limited computational power. Meanwhile, IP networks like t...
As agent technologies are increasingly being involved in telecommunication-related applications, the need for open standards is becoming critical. During the past years, different ...
Orphan requests are a significant problem for multi-tier distributed systems since they adversely impact system correctness by violating the exactly-once semantics of application...
