—Within collaborative computing, computer mediated communications are evolving rapidly thanks to the development of new technologies. The facilitation of awareness and discovery ...
This paper describes work in progress to develop a component-based software infrastructure, called Padico, for computational grids based on the CORBA Component Model from the OMG....
We present a generative model for representing and reasoning about the relationships among events in continuous time. We apply the model to the domain of networked and distributed...
We identify here various kinds of failure conditions and robustness issues that arise in context-aware pervasive computing applications. Such conditions are related to failures in...
We present an approach to process scheduling for synthesis of safety-critical distributed embedded systems. Our system model captures both the flow of data and that of control. Th...
