Behavioral constraints for services
- In Proceedings of BPM 2007, LNCS
, 2007
"... Abstract. Recently, we introduced the concept of an operating guideline of a service as a structure that characterizes all its properly interacting partner services. The hitherto considered correctness criterion is deadlock freedom of the composition of both services. In practice, there are intended ..."

, there are intended and unintended deadlock-freely interacting partners of a service. In this paper, we provide a formal approach to express intended and unintended behavior as behavioral constraints. With such a constraint, unintended partners can be “filtered ” yielding a customized operating guideline. Customized
Concurrent Constraint Programming
, 1993
"... This paper presents a new and very rich class of (con-current) programming languages, based on the notion of comput.ing with parhal information, and the con-commitant notions of consistency and entailment. ’ In this framework, computation emerges from the inter-action of concurrently executing agent ..."

agents that communi-cate by placing, checking and instantiating constraints on shared variables. Such a view of computation is in-teresting in the context of programming languages be-cause of the ability to represent and manipulate partial information about the domain of discourse, in the con
Grid Information Services for Distributed Resource Sharing
, 2001
"... Grid technologies enable large-scale sharing of resources within formal or informal consortia of individuals and/or institutions: what are sometimes called virtual organizations. In these settings, the discovery, characterization, and monitoring of resources, services, and computations are challengi ..."

are challenging problems due to the considerable diversity, large numbers, dynamic behavior, and geographical distribution of the entities in which a user might be interested. Consequently, information services are a vital part of any Grid software infrastructure, providing fundamental mechanisms for discovery
Tapestry: A Resilient Global-scale Overlay for Service Deployment
- IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications
, 2004
"... We present Tapestry, a peer-to-peer overlay routing infrastructure offering efficient, scalable, locationindependent routing of messages directly to nearby copies of an object or service using only localized resources. Tapestry supports a generic Decentralized Object Location and Routing (DOLR) API ..."

Cooperative diversity in wireless networks: efficient protocols and outage behavior
- IEEE TRANS. INFORM. THEORY
, 2004
"... We develop and analyze low-complexity cooperative diversity protocols that combat fading induced by multipath propagation in wireless networks. The underlying techniques exploit space diversity available through cooperating terminals’ relaying signals for one another. We outline several strategies ..."

QoS-aware middleware for web services composition
- IEEE TRANS. SOFTWARE ENG
, 2004
"... The paradigmatic shift from a Web of manual interactions to a Web of programmatic interactions driven by Web services is creating unprecedented opportunities for the formation of online Business-to-Business (B2B) collaborations. In particular, the creation of value-added services by composition of ..."

Systems Competition and Network Effects
- JOURNAL OF ECONOMIC PERSPECTIVES—VOLUME 8, NUMBER 2—SPRING 1994—PAGES 93–115
, 1994
"... Many products have little or no value in isolation, but generate value when combined with others. Examples include: nuts and bolts, which together provide fastening services; home audio or video components and programming, which together provide entertainment services; automobiles, repair parts and ..."

Live Migration of Virtual Machines
- In Proceedings of the 2nd ACM/USENIX Symposium on Networked Systems Design and Implementation (NSDI
, 2005
"... Migrating operating system instances across distinct physical hosts is a useful tool for administrators of data centers and clusters: It allows a clean separation between hardware and software, and facilitates fault management, load balancing, and low-level system maintenance. By carrying out the ma ..."

Link-Sharing and Resource Management Models for Packet Networks
, 1995

Hierarchical link-sharing allows multiple agencies, protocol families, or traflic types to share the bandwidth on a tink in a controlled fashion. Link-sharing and real-t ..."

Rather than requiring a gateway to implement separate mechanisms for link-sharing and real-time services, the approach in this paper is to view link-sharing and real-time service requirements as simultaneous, and in some respect
Data Mining: An Overview from Database Perspective
- IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON KNOWLEDGE AND DATA ENGINEERING
