Grid Computing, initially intended to provide access to computational resources for high-performance computing applications, broadened its focus by addressing computational needs o...
Abstract. Stochastic model checking is a recent extension of traditional modelchecking techniques for the integrated analysis of both qualitative and quantitative system properties...
A recent trend in Ubiquitous Computing is that embedded software (e.g. in production machines, wired or wireless networked sensors and actuators, or RFID readers) directly offers W...
Abstract— This paper focuses on large-scale distributed systems that can be modeled as workflows of activities sharing resources, knowledge, know-how and services. We propose a ...
The enormous growth in wireless communications and miniaturized handheld devices in the last few years, have given rise to a vast range of new services, for heterogeneous user env...
