Abstract. We propose and discuss foundations for programmable overlay networks and overlay computing systems. Such overlays are built over a large number of distributed computation...
Abstract Description Logics (DLs) are a family of class (concept) based knowledge representation formalisms. They are characterised by the use of various constructors to build comp...
The purpose of the chapter is to help someone familiar with DLs to understand the issues involved in developing an ontology for some universe of discourse, which is to become a co...
Detecting whether a finite execution trace (or a computation) of a distributed program satisfies a given predicate, called predicate detection, is a fundamental problem in distr...
