In order to let software programs gain full benefit from semi-structured web sources, wrapper programs must be built to provide a “machine-readable” view over them. A signific...
Abstract. With the emerging mass production of very small, cheap Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tags, it is becoming feasible to deploy such tags on a large scale. In this ...
Agent technology is critical in providing solutions to grid computing, including resource selection. Traditionally, agent deliberation offers a deductive process whose deliberation...
A new gradient-based routing protocol is proposed in this paper. It takes into account the minimum hop count and remaining energy of each node while relaying data from source node ...
We study the security challenges faced by the mobile agent paradigm, where code travels and performs computations on remote hosts in an autonomous manner. We define universally co...
