One of the challenges in large scale distributed computing is to utilize the thousands of idle personal computers. In this paper, we present a system that enables users to e ortles...
Multi-agent simulations aim at representing the dynamics of complex systems as resulting from multiple interactions between autonomous entities including their own perception of lo...
Multi-agent systems can be viewed as object-oriented systems in which their entities show an autonomous behavior. If objects could acquire such skill in a flexible way, agents coul...
Persistent stores support uniform management of data objects regardless of their lifetimes and locations. Such stores typically maintain a self-consistent state even after failure...

In this paper we discuss the behavior of the replacement mechanism of well-known COMA protocols applied to a loosely-coupled multicomputer system sharing a common bus. We also pres...
