Increasing sizes of present-day distributed software systems call for coordination models which are both modular and scalable. Precise modelling of real-life applications further r...
Service-Oriented Computing and Agent Technology are nowadays two of the most active research fields in distributed and open systems. However, when trying to bridge the two worlds,...
Abstract. We motivate, discuss and present extensions to architecture modelling techniques through which business systems can support services and applications that are location an...
Complex and dynamic interaction behaviors in applications such as Virtual Reality (VR) systems are difficult to design and develop. Reasons for this include the complexity and lim...
The requirement for spontaneous interaction in ubiquitous computing creates security issues over and above those present in other areas of computing, deeming traditional approaches...
