Large and complex computer based systems are the result of an evolution process which may take many years. Heterogeneity is an important characteristic of such systems: During the...
: Many model management tasks, e.g., schema matching or merging, require the manual handling of metadata. Given the diversity of metadata, its many different representations and mo...
Abstract--The Grid is an heterogeneous and dynamic environment which enables distributed computation. This makes it a technology prone to failures. Some related work uses replicati...
In distributed real-time systems, an application is often modeled as a set of real-time transactions, where each transaction is a chain of precedence-constrained tasks. Each task ...
