Abstract. Modern distributed computing demands unprecedented levels of dynamicity and reconfiguration. Mobile computing, peer-to-peer networks, computational grids, multiagent sys...
Abstract. In Distributed Problem-solving (DPS) systems a group of purposefully designed computational agents interact and co-ordinate their activities so as to jointly achieve a gl...
Service oriented architectures (SOAs) provide an architectural paradigm to develop and evolve enterprise information systems. A key feature of SOAs is compensability of services. ...
