— The fields of autonomics and system configuration share a common goal in decreasing the cost of ownership of large fabrics. In this paper we present a combined vision in whic...
Virtual machines can greatly simplify wide-area discomputing by lowering the level of abstraction to the benefit of both resource providers and users. Networking, however, can be ...
In this paper, we try to demonstrate the capability of a very simple architecture to learn to recognize and reproduce facial expressions without the innate capability to recognize ...
State-of-the-art computer graphics can give autonomous agents a compelling appearance as animated virtual characters. Typically the agents are directly responsible for controlling ...
Increasingly, applications need to be able to self-reconfigure in response to changing requirements and environmental conditions. Autonomic computing has been proposed as a means...
