Middleware helps to manage the complexity and heterogeneity inherent in distributed systems. Traditional middleware has a monolithic architecture, which makes it difficult to adap...
This paper explores integrating self-tuning updates and sequential consistency to enable transparent replication of large-scale information dissemination services. We focus our at...
In pervasive computing environments, conditions are highly variable and resources are limited. In order to meet the needs of applications, systems must adapt dynamically to changi...
