Ubiquitous application software usually has multiple QoS requirements, such as situationawareness, real-time, and security, which make the application software development complic...
The emergence of applications operating independently of direct human control is inevitable. Research on high-level models for this class of applications— e.g. on autonomous age...
Most of today’s distributed computing systems in the field do not support the migration of execution entities among computing nodes during runtime. The relatively static associa...
We present a framework that will enable scalable analysis and design of graceful degradation in distributed embedded systems. We define graceful degradation in terms of utility. A...
Assigning an application’s fault-tolerance properties (e.g., replication style, checkpointing frequency) statically, and in an arbitrary manner, can lead to the application not ...
The ’Distributed Control Lab’ [6] at Hasso-PlattnerInstitute, University of Potsdam allows experimentation with a variety of physical equipment via the web (intra and internet...
