Supporting uninterrupted services for distributed soft real-time applications is hard in resource-constrained and dynamic environments, where processor or process failures and sys...
Data integrity is a fundamental aspect of storage security and reliability. With the advent of network storage and new technology trends that result in new failure modes for stora...
— Buffered crossbar (CICQ) switches have shown a high potential in scaling Internet routers capacity. However, they require expensive on-chip buffers whose cost grows quadratical...
In this paper, we present generic algorithms to ensure the consistency of mutual-exclusion and binding constraints in a business process context. We repeatedly identified the need...
Abstract. System architectures are described in abstract terms, often using Design Patterns. Actual reuse based on such descriptions requires that each development project derive a...
