We present a method for directly modeling piles of objects in multibody simulations. Piles of objects represent some of the more interesting, but also most time-consuming portion ...
Testing and verification of asynchronously communicating objects in open environments are challenging due to non-determinism. We explore a formal approach for black-box testing by...
A pattern is a model or a template used to summarize and describe the behavior (or the trend) of a data having generally some recurrent events. Patterns have received a considerab...
Reputation systems facilitate cooperation in open environments. Centrality-based reputation systems use centrality measures to rank individuals, i.e., compute their reputation bas...
Web applications can be classified as hybrids between hypermedia and information systems. They have a relatively simple distributed architecture from the user viewpoint, but a comp...
