Abstract—The following network computing problem is considered. Source nodes in a directed acyclic network generate independent messages and a single receiver node computes a tar...
Virtual machines can greatly simplify wide-area discomputing by lowering the level of abstraction to the benefit of both resource providers and users. Networking, however, can be ...
Abstract. Finite-state machines are the most pervasive models of computation, not only in theoretical computer science, but also in all of its applications to real-life problems, a...
Computing technologies such as games, social networking sites, and virtual environments often reproduce forms of social stigma encountered in everyday real life, as well as introd...
