Wireless sensor networks consist of a large number of tiny sensors that have only limited energy supply. One of the major challenges in constructing such networks is to maintain l...
— This paper describes IKE 2, which is distributed object computing middleware that supports the creation of interoperable realtime distributed applications. These applications a...
Database partitioning is a technique for improving the performance of distributed OLTP databases, since “single partition” transactions that access data on one partition do no...
Abstract. We describe a set of preliminary experiments to evolve spiking neural controllers for a vision-based mobile robot. All the evolutionary experiments are carried out on phy...
An emerging tapestry of computations will soon integrate systems around the globe. It will evolve without central control. Its complexity will be vast. We need new ideas, tools an...
