Distributed Computing, the exploitation of idle cycles on pervasive desktop PC systems offers the opportunity to increase the available computing power by orders of magnitude (10x...
—In the modern car, electronic devices are even employed for safety-critical missions like brake control, where failures might cost human lives. Among various approaches to incre...
Applications in the Pervasive Computing domain are challenged by the dynamism in which their execution environment changes, e.g. due to user mobility. As a result, applications ha...

We identify here various kinds of failure conditions and robustness issues that arise in context-aware pervasive computing applications. Such conditions are related to failures in...
Pervasive computing calls for suitable middleware and programming models to deal with large software systems dived in dynamic mobile network environments. Here we present the prog...
