Telepointers are a real-time groupware interface feature to indicate where other users are pointing. None of existing telepointer techniques, however, is capable of tracking the r...
When two sponsoring organizations, working towards separate goals, can employ wireless sensor networks for a finite period of time, it can be efficiency-enhancing for the sponso...
In this paper we discuss the effects of symbiosis when using an attractor selection model for multi-path routing in an overlay network. Attractor selection is a biologically inspi...
We propose a new overlay network, called Generic Identifier Network (GIN), for collaborative nodes to share objects with transactions across affiliated organizations by merging th...
The trusted computing bases (TCBs) of applications running on today’s commodity operating systems have become extremely large. This paper presents an architecture that allows to...
Peer-to-peer applications can benefit from human friendship networks (e.g., e-mail contacts or instant message buddy lists). However these are not always available. We propose an...
In this paper, we outline the basis for a new distributed Bayesian search scheme in which all Bayesian decision makers recognize the same performance objective but do not possess ...
P2P data stores achieve high data availability by introducing replication of data. As a consequence, searching data may require to follow several routing paths introducing additio...
In contrast to a large body of theoretical work on computer systems, distributed systems are not idealised constructions, unconstrained by physical world limitations. They must be...
