The specification and monitoring of conditional obligations and prohibitions with starting points and deadlines is a crucial aspect in the design of open interaction systems. In th...
Recently-developed techniques have improved the performance of production systems several times over. However, these techniques are not yet adequate for continuous problem solving...
Research can rarely be performed on large-scale, distributed systems at the level of thousands of workstations. In this paper, we describe the motivating constraints, design princ...
Distributed Virtual Computer (DVC) is a computing environment which simplifies the development and execution of distributed applications on computational grids. DVC provides a sim...
While scalable data mining methods are expected to cope with massive Web data, coping with evolving trends in noisy data in a continuous fashion, and without any unnecessary stopp...
