Rapid technological advances in recent years have precipitated a general shift towards
software distribution as a central computing paradigm. This has been accompanied by a …

Pervasive computing applications involve both software concerns, like any software system,
and integration concerns, for the constituent networked devices of the pervasive computing …

Abstract The World Wide Web is becoming increasingly personalized as users provide more
of their information on the Web. Thus, Web service functionality is becoming reliant on user …

Reference attribute grammars (RAGs) can be used to express semantics as super-imposed
graphs on top of abstract syntax trees (ASTs). A RAG-based AST can be used as the in …

This paper describes a methodology and a programming support that use the SIP protocol
as a universal communication bus in pervasive computing environments. In doing so, our …

In this paper, a polygonal approximation approach based on a multi-objective genetic
algorithm is proposed. In this method, the optimization/exploration algorithm locates …
