In an open distributed system, computational resources are peer-owned, and distributed over time and space. The fact that these resources can dynamically join or leave the system (...
We present the design, implementation, and evaluation of a fully distributed directory service for Farsite, a logically centralized file system that is physically implemented on a...
We describe Breach, a Matlab toolbox providing a coherent set of simulation-based techniques aimed at the analysis of deterministic models of hybrid dynamical systems. The primary ...
An approach for handling the complex dynamics of a multi-agent system is based on distinguishing aggregation levels. The behaviour at a given aggregation level is specified by a se...
PSL is a framework for describing dynamic and architectural properties of open systems. PSL extends established interface-based tactics for describing the functional properties of...
