Current database management system technology is unable to provide adequate support for Nomadic Computing. Mobile applications require systems which are sufficiently lightweight an...
— This paper considers the problem of verifying stability of large-scale nonlinear dynamical systems. Using a comparison principle approach we present a numerical method of estim...
Group communications systems have been designed to provide an infrastructure for fault-tolerance in distributed systems, including wide-area systems. In our work on master-worker ...
This paper contributes tothe study of nonlinear dynamical systems from a computational perspective. These systems are inherently more powerful than their linear counterparts (such...
