We explore the execution of queries with client-site userdefined functions (UDFs). Many UDFs can only be executed at the client site, for reasons of scalability, security, confide...
— The increasing heterogeneity, dynamism, and uncertainty of emerging DCE (Distributed Computing Environment) systems imply that an application must be able to detect and adapt t...
This paper presents a novel research direction in the field of sensor data management. It concerns transactional support in heterogeneous large scale sensor systems. Besides well...
To provide Quality of Service (QoS) guarantees in open and unpredictable environments, the utilization control problem is defined to keep the processor utilization at the schedula...
This paper presents a component model for building distributed applications with fault-tolerance requirements. The AFT-CCM model selects the configuration of replicated services d...
