Distributed writable storage systems typically provide NFS-like semantics and unbounded persistence for files. We claim that for planetary-scale distributed services such facilit...
ss domain. Using this more abstract approach means that more data sources of varying types can be incorporated with less effort, and such heterogeneous data sources might be very r...
We summarize some current trends in embedded systems design and point out some of their characteristics, such as the chasm between analytical and computational models, and the gap ...
A definition of types in an information system is given from ld abstractions through data constructs, schema and definitions to physical data values. Category theory suggests tha...
The ubiquitous computing vision is to make knowledge and services easily available in our everyday environments. A wide range of devices, applications and services can be intercon...
