We study the fifo and causal multicast problem, two group-communication abstractions that deliver messages in an order consistent with their context. With fifo multicast, the co...
Accelerated by the technological advances in the domain, the size of the biomedical literature has been growing rapidly. As a result, it is not feasible for individual researchers...
Co-citation (number of nodes linking to both of a given pair of nodes) is often used heuristically to judge similarity between nodes in a complex network. We investigate the relat...
This paper proposes a software architecture and a development process for engineering dependable and controllable self-organising (SO) systems. Our approach addresses dependabilit...

Cluster-based multi-tier systems provide a means for building scalable Internet services. Building adaptive Internet services that are able to apply appropriate system sizing and ...
Architectural patterns provide proven solutions to recurring design problems that arise in a system context. A major challenge for modeling patterns in a system design is effectiv...
In this paper, we explore the problem of processing a novel type of location based queries, named the location based top-k query, which involves both of spatial and non-spatial sp...
