The dynamically configurable distributed object (DCDO) model helps enable object evolution and facilitate the development of distributed objects from multiple independent implemen...
In this paper, we examine the availability and utility of idle memory in workstation clusters. We attempt to answer the following questions. First, how much of the total memory in...
The early 1980s saw the development of some rather sophisticated distributed systems. These were not merely networked file systems: rather, using remote procedure calls, hierarchi...
Intelligent planning algorithms such as the Partially Observable Markov Decision Process (POMDP) have succeeded in dialog management applications [10, 11, 12] because of their rob...
In-network aggregation is an essential primitive for performing queries on sensor network data. However, most aggregation algorithms assume that all intermediate nodes are trusted...
