      An abstract channel specification and an algorithm implementing it using Java sockets 

      Georgiou, Chryssis; Shvartsman, A. A.; Musiał, Peter M.; Sonderegger, E. L. (2008)
      Models and specifications can be used in the design of distributed applications to formally reason about their safety properties. However, the benefits of using formal methods are often negated by the ad hoc process of ...

      ACLP: Flexible solutions to complex problems 

      Kakas, Antonis C.; Mourlas, G. (1997)
      In this paper we present a new system for non-monotonic reasoning performed using abduction. The system, called ACLP, is a programming language based on the framework of Abductive and Constraint Logic Programming (ACLP) ...

      Advanced Array Optimizations for High Performance Functional Languages 

      Cann, D. C.; Evripidou, Paraskevas (1995)
      In this paper, we discuss and evaluate three opti- mizations for reducing memory management overhead and data copying costs in SISAL 1.2 programs that build arrays. The first, called framework preconstruction, eliminates ...

      Application of abductive ILP to learning metabolic network inhibition from temporal data 

      Tamaddoni-Nezhad, A.; Chaleil, R.; Kakas, Antonis C.; Muggleton, S. (2006)
      In this paper we use a logic-based representation and a combination of Abduction and Induction to model inhibition in metabolic networks. In general, the integration of abduction and induction is required when the following ...

      An argumentation framework for reasoning about actions and change 

      Kakas, Antonis C.; Miller, R.; Toni, F. (1999)
      We show how a class of domains written in the Language E, a high level language for reasoning about actions, narratives and change, can be translated into the argumentation framework of Logic Programming without Negation ...

      Asynchronous timed multimedia environments based on the coordination paradigm 

      Papadopoulos, George Angelos (2003)
      This paper combines work done in the areas of Artificial Intelligence, Multimedia Systems and Coordination Programming to derive a framework for Distributed Multimedia Systems based on asynchronous timed computations ...

      Combining pragmatics and intelligence in semantic web service discovery 

      Tamani, E.; Evripidou, Paraskevas (2007)
      In this paper we present an architecture that augments existing semantic-based web service discovery solutions. The idea is to combine principles from the semantic and pragmatic web in order for the web service selection ...

      Concurrent object-oriented programming using term graph rewriting techniques 

      Papadopoulos, George Angelos (1996)
      The generalized computational model of Term Graph Rewriting Systems is used as the basis for expressing concurrent object-oriented programming techniques exploiting the fine grain highly parallel features of TGRS in a ...

      Control-driven coordination based assembling of components 

      Chimaris, Avraam N.; Papadopoulos, George Angelos (2002)
      The coordination paradigm has been used extensively as a mechanism for software composition and integration. Consequently, a number of associated models and languages have been proposed which address issues of CBSE from ...

      Coordination of systems with real-time properties in manifold 

      Papadopoulos, George Angelos; Arbab, Farhad (IEEE, 1996)
      This paper combines work done in the areas of asynchronous timed computations and coordination models in order to derive a framework able to express real-time coordination without adhering to special architectures or ...

      A core grid ontology for the semantic grid 

      Wei, X.; Dikaiakos, Marios D.; Sakellariou, R. (2006)
      In this paper, we propose a Core Grid Ontology (CGO) that define s fundamental Grid-specific concepts, and the relationships between them. One of the key goals is to make this Core Grid Ontology general enough and easily ...

      Distributed and parallel systems engineering in MANIFOLD 

      Papadopoulos, George Angelos (1998)
      A rather recent approach in programming parallel and distributed systems is that of coordination models and languages. Coordination programming enjoys a number of advantages such as the ability to express different software ...

      Distributed function calculation via linear iterations in the presence of malicious agents - Part I: Attacking the network 

      Sundaram, S.; Hadjicostis, Christoforos N. (2008)
      We consider the problem of distributed function calculation in the presence of faulty or malicious agents. In particular, we consider a setup where each node has an initial value and the goal is for (a subset of) the nodes ...

      Distributed function calculation via linear iterations in the presence of malicious agents - Part II: Overcoming malicious behavior 

      Sundaram, S.; Hadjicostis, Christoforos N. (2008)
      Given a network of interconnected nodes, each with a given initial value, we develop a distributed strategy that enables some or all of the nodes to calculate any arbitrary function of these initial values, despite the ...

      Editorial: Why coordination models and languages in AI? 

      Omicini, A.; Papadopoulos, George Angelos (2001)
      The pervasive spreading of information technology, along with the continuously growing and almost ubiquitous request for intelligence in systems, is giving new life to AI research. At the same time, this introduces new ...

      Efficient indexing data structures for flash-based sensor devices 

      Lin, S.; Zeinalipour-Yazdi, Constantinos D.; Kalogeraki, Vana; Gunopulos, Dimitrios; Najjar, W. A. (2006)
      Flash memory is the most prevalent storage medium found on modern wireless sensor devices (WSDs). In this article we present two external memory index structures for the efficient retrieval of records stored on the local ...

      Essential features of a compiler target language for parallel machines 

      Papadopoulos, George Angelos (IEEE, 1995)
      Term Graph Rewriting Systems (TGRS) have been used extensively as an implementation vehicle for a number of, often divergent, programming paradigms ranging from the traditional functional programming ones to the (concurrent) ...
