In this paper, we develop a symbolic representation for timed concurrent constraint (tccp) programs, which can be used for defining a lightweight model–checking algorithm for re...
Abstract. “Pulse Synchronization” intends to invoke a recurring distributed event at the different nodes, of a distributed system as simultaneously as possible and with a freq...
This work presents some anticipatory mechanisms in an agent architecture, modeling affective behaviours as effects of surprise. Through experiment discussion, the advantages of bec...
Multi-touch interfaces have been a focus of research in recent years, resulting in development of various innovative UI concepts. Support for existing WIMP interfaces, however, sh...
Energy conservation is an important issue in the design of embedded systems. Dynamic Voltage Scaling (DVS) and Dynamic Power Management (DPM) are two widely used techniques for sav...
