Evolutionary Conditions for the Emergence of Communication in Robots

Dario Floreano, Stéphane Magnenat, Laurent Keller, Sara Mitri

Information transfer plays a central role in the biology of most organisms, particularly social species [1, 2]. Although the neurophysiological processes by which signals are produced, conducted, perceived, and interpreted are well understood, the conditio ...

Considerations on the design of cut-and-cover tunnels

Aurelio Muttoni, Laurent Vulliet, Vincent Labiouse, Sylvain Plumey

The communication shows an alternative for introducing soil-structure interaction in the analysis of cut-and-cover tunnels. An uncoupled method is illustrated through two examples representative of the situations found in practice. The main features of eac ...

Language Support for Fast and Reliable Message Based Communication in Singularity OS

James Richard Larus

Message-based communication offers potential benefits of providing stronger specification and cleaner separation between components. Compared with shared-memory interactions, message passing has the potential disadvantages of being more expensive (no direc ...

Efficient Distributed Multiresolution Processing for Data Gathering in Sensor Networks

Razvan Cristescu, Jugoslava Acimovic

We consider large sensor networks where the cost of collecting data from the network nodes to the data gathering sink is critical.~We propose several algorithms that use limited local communication and distributed signal processing to make communication mo ...

On Network Correlated Data Gathering

Martin Vetterli, Razvan Cristescu

We consider the problem of correlated data gathering by a network with a sink node and a tree communication structure, where the goal is to minimize the total transmission cost of transporting the information collected by the nodes, to the sink node. Two c ...

Beyond 1-Safety and 2-Safety for replicated databases: Group-Safety

André Schiper, Matthias Wiesmann

In this paper, we study the safety guarantees of group communication-based database replication techniques. We show that there is a model mismatch between group communication and database, and because of this, classical group communication systems cannot b ...

A Step towards a New Generation of Group Communication Systems

André Schiper, Sergio Mena

In this paper, we propose a new architecture for group communication middleware. Current group communication systems share some common features, despite the big differences that exist among them. We first point out these common features by describing the m ...
