A key question in the field of agent-oriented software engineering is how the kind and extent of autonomy owned by computational agents can be appropriately captured. As long as ...
The advent of high-performance networks in conjunction with low-cost, powerful computational engines has made possible the development of a new set of technologies termed computat...
Abstract— In this work, we demonstrate the power of providing a common set of operating system services to Grid Architectures, including high-performance I/O, communication, reso...
We present a parallel data processor centered around a programming model of so called Parallelization Contracts (PACTs) and the scalable parallel execution engine Nephele [18]. Th...
In reactive routing protocols, active routes for multihop connections retain their topological structure in spite of node movement over time. Unfortunately, node movements may mak...
