Intimate Interfaces in Action: Assessing the Usability and Subtlety of EMG-based Motionless Gestures

Enrico Costanza

Mobile communication devices, such as mobile phones and networked personal digital assistants (PDAs), allow users to be constantly connected and communicate anywhere and at any time, often resulting in personal and private communication taking place in pub ...

Advances in the Design and Implementation of Group Communication Middleware

André Schiper, Sergio Mena, Olivier Rütti, Rachele Fuzzati, Daniel Bünzli

Group communication is a programming abstraction that allows a distributed group of processes to provide a reliable service in spite of the possibility of failures within the group. The goal of the project was to improve the state of the art of group commu ...

Dynamic group communication

André Schiper

Group communication is the basic infrastructure for implementing fault-tolerant replicated servers. While group communication is well understood in the context of static groups (in which the membership does not change), current specifications of dynamic ...

Dependable Systems

André Schiper

Improving the dependability of computer systems is a critical and essential task. In this context, the paper surveys techniques that allow to achieve fault tolerance in distributed systems by replication. The main replication techniques are first explained ...

Effects of ‘Spatialized’ Communication in Tightly Coupled Work

Pierre Dillenbourg, Mauro Cherubini

This technical report describes the advancements on our research on collaborative annotations of maps. Particularly, we are trying to answer the following research question: does making explicit the location references of the elements of a discourse enhanc ...

Architectural Issues of JMS Compliant Group Communication

Nils Richard Ekwall, Arnas Kupsys

Group communication provides one-to-many communication primitives that simplify the development of highly available services. Despite advances in research and numerous prototypes, group communication stays confined to small niches. To facilitate the accept ...

Adaptive Distributed Algorithms for Power-Efficient Data Gathering in Sensor Networks

Razvan Cristescu, Jugoslava Acimovic

In this work, we consider the problem of designing adaptive distributed processing algorithms in large sensor networks that are efficient in terms of minimizing the total power spent for gathering the spatially correlated data from the sensor nodes to a si ...

Towards JMS Compliant Group Communication - a Semantic Mapping

André Schiper, Matthias Wiesmann, Stefan Pleisch, Arnas Kupsys

Group communication provides communication primitives with various semantics and their use greatly simplifies the development of highly available services. However, despite tremendous advances in research and numerous prototypes, group communication stays ...

Towards Flexible Finite-State Machine Based Protocol Composition

André Schiper, Sergio Mena, Nils Richard Ekwall, Stefan Pleisch

Group communication provides primitives that ensure reliable and ordered delivery of messages to a group of destinations. It is an important building block for replicated fault-tolerant applications such as replicated databases. In the past, most group com ...

Dynamic Group Communication

André Schiper

Group communication is the basic infrastructure for implementing fault-tolerant replicated servers. While group communication is well understood in the context of static systems (in which all processes are created at the start of the computation), current ...
