This paper discusses the application of robotic technologies to an evacuation assistance task. We describe how this kind of task differs from the more prevalent search and rescue ...
To distribute data from one sender to multiple receivers efficiently and concurrently, multicasting is one of the most appropriate mechanisms. Application Layer Multicast (ALM), ...
We propose and evaluate two complementary techniques to protect and virtualize a tightly-coupled network interface in a multicomputer. The techniques allow efficient, direct appli...
