Generally, swarm models and algorithms consider synchronous agents, i.e., they act simultaneously. This hypothesis does not fit multi-agent simulators nor robotic systems. In this...
A theory of resource sharing in a mixed system with hard real-time and non-real-time processing requirements is presented. The real-time processing is modeled as rate-based execut...
—In this paper, we present a UML metamodel-based approach for creating and executing workflow models. The modeling language is introduced through its abstract syntax, and an eval...
Workflow is the key technology for business process automation, while distributed workflow is the solution to deal with the decentralized nature of workflow applications and the pe...
