Reliability has become a serious concern as systems embrace nanometer technologies. In this paper, we propose a novel approach for organizing redundancy that provides high degree ...
Abstract. Heterogeneous specification becomes more and more important because complex systems are often specified using multiple viewpoints, involving multiple formalisms. Moreover...
Interaction protocols are specific, often standard, constraints on the behaviors of autonomous agents in a multiagent system. Protocols are essential to the functioning of open sys...
W3C currently extends the SPARQL query language with so-called entailment regimes, which define how queries are evaluated using logical entailment relations. We describe a sound a...
