Autonomic Computing is a promising new concept in system development. It aims to (i) increase reliability by designing systems to be self-protecting and self-healing; and (ii) inc...
In this paper we focus on the issue of repository transactions. Similar to database objects repository objects can be accessed form multiple clients simultaneously. The organizati...
The increasing use of distributed authentication architecture has made interoperability of systems an important issue. Interoperability of systems reflects the maturity of the tech...
We describe a sensor network based on smart requirements of the network. This will provide a new approach imager sensors able to extract events of interest from a scene. for compos...
Abstract Sensor devices produce data that are unreliable, low-level, and seldom able to be used directly by applications. In this paper, we propose Metaphysical Data Independence (...
