Several agent-oriented software engineering methodologies address the emerging challenges posed by the increasing need of adaptive software. A common denominator of such methodolo...
This paper presents a connection handoff interface between the operating system and the network interface. Using this interface, the operating system can offload a subset of TCP c...
Biological systems are far more complex and robust than systems we can engineer today. One way to increase the complexity and robustness of our engineered systems is to study how ...
One of the major problems in building large-scale distributed systems is to anticipate the performance of the eventual solution before it has been built. This problem is especiall...
