In this paper, we present TOTA (“Tuples On The Air”), a novel middleware to coordinate the movements of a large number of autonomous components (i.e. agents) in a ubiquitous co...
We consider query optimization techniques for data intensive P2P applications. We show how to adapt an old technique from deductive databases, namely Query-Sub-Query (QSQ), to a s...
Abstract. This paper investigates the problem of autonomously allocating a large number of independent, equal sized tasks on a distributed heterogeneous grid-like platform, using o...
We present TOTA (“Tuples On The Air”), a novel middleware for supporting adaptive context-aware activities in dynamic network scenarios. The key idea in TOTA is to rely on spa...
Distributed information systems for decision support and e-commerce applications require coordination of multiple autonomous components and their services to accomplish a set of g...
