It is widely acknowledged that coordination of large scale software development is an extremely difficult and persistent problem. Since the structure of the code mirrors the struc...
Abstract We propose a method for estimating the topology of distributed cameras, which can provide useful information for multi-target tracking in a wide area, without object ident...
Abstract. Global computing applications co-ordinate distributed computations across widely-dispersed hosts. Such systems present formidable design and implementation challenges to ...
