Object mobility is the basis for highly dynamic distributed applications. This paper presents the design and implementation of mobile objects on the basis of the CORBA standard. Ou...
In open distributed multi-agent systems, agents often coordinate using standardized agent communications. Thus, representing agent conversations is an important aspect of multi-age...
Optimizing programs at run-time provides opportunities to apply aggressive optimizations to programs based on information that was not available at compile time. At run time, prog...
Probability features increasingly often in software and hardware systems: it is used in distributed co-ordination and routing problems, to model fault-tolerance and performance, a...
The relative tolerances for interconnect and device parameter variations have not scaled with feature sizes which have brought about significant performance variability. As we sca...
