Wait-free implementations of shared objects tolerate the failure of processes, but not the failure of base objects from which they are implemented. We consider the problem of imple...
This paper introduces a mechanism for establishing policies for electronic commerce in a uni ed and secure manner. A commercial policy can be viewed as the embodiment of a contrac...
Microprocessor trends are moving towards wider architectures and more aggressive speculation. With the increasing transistor budgets, energy consumption has become a critical desi...
In this paper we propose a novel computational technique to solve the Eikonal equation. The proposed method manages the list of active nodes and iteratively updates the solutions ...
Computational models of trust have been proposed for use in ubicomp environments for deciding whether to allow customers to pay with an e-purse or not. In order to build trust in ...
