Parallel machines are typically space shared, or time shared such that only one application executes on a group of nodes at any given time. It is generally assumed that executing ...
Transactional Coherence and Consistency (TCC) is a novel coherence scheme for shared memory multiprocessors that uses programmer-defined transactions as the fundamental unit of p...
In this paper we present our work toward the creation of a multimodal expressive Embodied Conversational Agent (ECA). Our agent, called Greta, exhibits nonverbal behaviors synchro...
Parallel and distributed simulations enable the analysis of complex systems by concurrently exploiting the aggregate computation power and memory of clusters of execution units. I...
This paper proposes a model along with a reference software architecture enabling multi-coordination between distributed and mobile software agents. Multi-coordination allows agen...
