Dynamic reconfiguration allows modifying a system during its execution, and can be used to apply patches and updates, to implement adaptive systems, dynamic instrumentation, or to...
Modern real-time systems are increasingly complex and pervasive. Model Driven Engineering (MDE) is the emerging approach for the design of complex systems, strongly the usage of a...

This paper presents the modeling paradigm for Integrated Modular Avionics Design MIMAD V0, which is an extensible component-oriented framework that enables high level models of sy...
Critical to any successful performance improvement initiative is to achieve a state of continuous or institutionalized improvement. Some improvement can happen quickly, but long-t...
Understanding complex component-based systems often requires getting insight in how certain system properties, such as performance, trust, reliability, or structural attributes, c...
In this paper we present a comprehensive set of mechanisms that restore to the site administrator the capacity of enforcing Traffic Engineering (TE) policies in a multiaddressed I...
Instant messaging platforms facilitate coordination in workgroups by providing users with mutual information on their presence and availability, allowing for ad-hoc conversations ...
Most existing DHT algorithms assume that all nodes have equal capabilities. This assumption has previously been shown to be untrue in real deployments, where the heterogeneity of ...
