An area that has recently received attention from the distributed systems community is Swarm Intelligence (SI)---SI has been successfully used in fields such as robotics and optimisation. Recently its properties have started to attract research in distributed systems. In this paper we merge SI concepts into the LINDA model to provide an adaptive approach to time which is unrelated to external (real) time: the result ...

This paper addresses the opportunities for, and effects of, incorporating object attributes in Linda-like tuple-space systems. The focus is on exploring how the coordination attributes are affected by this enhancement, and investigating in what ways the classical Linda model ...

Therefore, it is important to create a flexible architecture that allows a customer to choose the appropriate amount of fault tolerance, a concept we call" RAS by the yard." In this paper we describe a ...

An experimental arrangement of such technique involved making use of a novel temperature sensor coupled with an experimental test rig. The CST technique was found to be novel, simple, and reliable for velocity profile measurements of flowing polymer melts. The preliminary results showed that the velocity profiles in the barrel changed continuously with changing screw position.

It is shown that the platform extends without change of slope from Palaeozoic rocks onto Cretaceous, Oligocene and (?)Miocene beds. Five regressions and transgressions can be traced, and a tentative explanation is advanced for the slow transgression phases.
