We study the limit as n 0 of the nonnegative, self-similar source-type solutions of the thin film equation ut + (unuxxx)x = 0. We obtain a unique limiting function u, which is a s...
A new approach to algorithmic computation of the homology of spaces and maps is presented. The key point of the approach is a change in the representation of sets. The proposed rep...
Traditionally, distributed resource management/ scheduling systems for the Grid (e.g. Globus/ GRAM/ Condor-G) have tended to deal with coarsegrained and concrete resource types (e....

The importance of middleware and content adaptation has previously been demonstrated for pervasive use of Web-based applications. In this paper we propose a modular, extensible, a...
Applications that rely on replicated data have different requirements for how their data is managed. For example, some applications may require that updates propagate amongst repl...
