The article presents the concepts and the tools involved in the interactive design of artistic screens. The screen elements are derived from a small set of analytical contours provided by the screen designer. We present the requirements that these contours ...
This paper introduces four sociological concepts which we argue are important for the creation of autonomous social agents capable of behaving and interacting realistically with each other as virtual humans. A list of functional requirements based on these ...
Distributed dats bases and data replication are recognised today as an efficient way to increase availability and fiability in data bases. The problem of mutual co-herence of copies is however introduced. Updating data is to be done on all copies. The noti ...
Databases are an important part of today's IT infrastructure: both companies and state institutions rely on database systems to store most of their important data. As we are more and more dependent on database systems, securing this key facility is now a p ...
This paper presents x-ability (Exactly-once-ability): a correctness criteria for replicated services. X-ability provides the illusion that the actions executed by a replicated service are executed exactly-once, even if these actions have been actually exec ...
In support of flexible composition, components need to be adaptable and they need to have first-class plugs. Abstract state machines and object-oriented programming each satisfy one of these requirements very well but satisfy the other only incompletely. T ...
Data replication is an increasingly important topic as databases are more and more deployed over clusters of workstations. One of the challenges in database replication is to introduce replication without severely affecting performance. Because of this dif ...
This paper presents the semi-passive replication technique -- a variant of passive replication -- that can be implemented in the asynchronous system model without requiring a membership service to agree on a primary. Passive replication is a popular replic ...
Replication is an area of interest to both distributed systems and databases. The solutions developed from these two perspectives are conceptually similar but differ in many aspects: model, assumptions, mechanisms, guarantees provided, and implementation. ...
