This book presents the authors' updated view on the most relevant topics of distributed systems. This second edition shares most of the contents with the previous one in terms of contents/chapters, but many of the chapte...

In this article we show how the design of interfaces for the visualization of distributed system load can benefit from the combination of concepts and techniques from Information Visualization and Human Computer Interact...

Augmented marked graphs possess a special structure for modelling common resources as well as some desirable properties pertaining to liveness, boundedness, reversibility and conservativeness. This paper investigates the...

Facing the different approaches to process activation and global termination detection on distributed systems, this paper performs a practical comparison between the mainly opposed centralized and distributed models. Fir...

The subject matter of this work is focused in the development of an application for team work over a distributed system belonging to an organization. This choice is based in the organizations need of their members’ co...

This work presents the development of an instantaneous messaging system, which is centered on the distributed handling of user groups. The method pro-posed for handling of groups has several distinctive characteristics: ...

When certain enterprise domain needs to make an unusual decision, it will probably require new kind of information. If the interaction model among domains cannot be defined because the decision scenarios are unpredictabl...

A loosely coupled distributed system is composed by nodes, usually heterogenous, connected by a network. These systems have enormous aggregate computing potential. However most of this potential is not realized unless th...

Multiagent Systems is the title of a collection of papers dedicated to surveying specific themes of Multiagent Systems (MAS) and Distributed Artificial Intelligence (DAI). All of them authored by leading researchers of t...

A Federated System is a collection of independent, cooperative, possibly heterogeneous and autonomous computer systems (usually database systems) which allows sharing all or some of its data. A Service-Oriented Architect...

In the Distributed Software Development (DSD) is fundamental the use of methodologies, techniques and tools to support the communication and help teams physically distributed in the activities accomplishment. The adequat...

This paper presents an evolution of a simulation environment where situations in which a DDB should maintain data integrity are modeled and implemented. These situations include failures taking place during transactions,...

Nowadays Peer-to-Peer (P2P) systems became an important part of Internet, millions of users have been attracted to use their structures and services. The popularity of Peer-to-Peer systems speed up academic research join...

Such as the author states in the first pages, this book is the result of several years of teaching the involved topics at the California Polytechnic State University (Cal Poly), San Luis Obispo, California, U.S.A, to und...

Resumen de la tesis del autor para obtener el grado de Magister en Redes de Datos de la Facultad de Informática de la UNLP, dirigida por Luis Armando Marrone. Es revisión de: http://sedici.unlp.edu.ar/handle/10915/4107...

This paper provides a theoretical framework for analysis of consensus algorithms for multi-agent networked systems with an emphasis on the role of directed information flow, robustness to changes in network topology due ...

This essay is based on a previous “regression” testing knowledge, black box testing and user graphic interfaces testing. Besides, due to the fact that the testing life cycle is inside the software life cycle, the sug...

The objective of present study was to improve gastric residence time of furazolidone by preparing mucoadhesive Multiple Unit Systems (MUS) with chitosan, Hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose K4M and sodium carboxymethyl cellul...

The main goal of this thesis was to design new parallel processing strategies specially conceived for distributed environments in order to solve numerical and structural problems from the field of process systems enginee...

Providing Quality of Service (QoS) in Video on Demand systems (VoD) is a challenging problem. In this paper, we analyse the fault tolerance on a P2P multicast delivery scheme, called Patch Collaboration Manager / Multica...

The exponential periodicity and stability of continuous nonlinear neural networks with variable coefficients and distributed delays are investigated via employing Young inequality technique and Lyapunov method. Some new...

Migration of individuals allows a fruitful interaction between subpopulations in the island model, a well known distributed approach for evolutionary computing, where separate subpopulations evolve in parallel. This mode...

An analogy with the way ant colonies function has suggested the definition of a new computational paradigm, which we call ant system (AS). We propose it as a viable new approach to stochastic combinatorial optimization. ...

In this paper we show an algorithm for dynamic reconfiguration of distributed applications based on the mobile agent model. We also show that the proposed algorithm can be easily implemented in the IPL language, a langua...
