With the growth in the computation capacity of sensor nodes, they are increasingly equipped to handle more complex functions. Moreover, the need to realize the complete loop of se...
Since the birth of computational and data grids, many middlewares have been developed and deployed. Currently, they are used in a multitude of isolated e-Infrastructures and a hot...
—The field of robotics relies heavily on various technologies such as mechatronics, computing systems, and wireless communication. Given the fast growing technological progress i...
—The concept of Mobile Web Services (Mob-WS) is catching pace within research communities due to rapid classification of mobile devices enabling pervasive environments. A Web Se...
Abstract— The use of many distributed, heterogeneous resources as a large collective platform offers great potential. A key issue for these grid platforms is middleware scalabili...
Abstract— There are many applications where a timely response to an important event is needed. Often such response can require significant computation and possibly communication...
