We explain the use of PEPA nets in documenting high-level designs of mobile code and mobile computing systems. This modelling language (which allows the modeller to differentiate ...
Flexible and distributed management systems based on mobile agents have certain advantages over centralized and static management architectures. However, security plays a decisive...
Current generation embedded applications demand the computation engine to offer high performance similar to custom hardware circuits while preserving the flexibility of software s...
The recent emergence of multi-core processors enables a new trend in the usage of computers. Computer vision applications, which require heavy computation and lots of bandwidth, u...
We address the problem of maximizing application speedup through runtime, self-selection of an appropriate number of processors on which to run. Automatic, runtime selection of pr...
