A model to treat the anomalous Hall effect is developed. Based on the Kubo formalism and
on the Dirac equation, this model allows the simultaneous calculation of the skew-scattering …

Replication Techniques in Distributed Systems organizes and surveys the spectrum of
replication protocols and systems that achieve high availability by replicating entities in …

We consider the prediction problem of a time series on a whole time interval in terms of its
past. The approach that we adopt is based on functional kernel nonparametric regression …

Arjuna is an object-oriented program-ming system, implemented entirely in C++, that
provides a set of tools for the construction of fault-tolerant distributed applications. Arjuna …

CONCURRENCY, in its many variants from multithreading to multiprocessing, distributed
computing, Internet applications, and Web services, has become a required component of …

Extending a result of Vassilevich, we obtain the asymptotic expansion for the trace of a
spatially regularized heat operator L Θ (f) e− t Δ Θ⁠, where Δ Θ is a generalized Laplacian …

An increasing portion of people's tasks within today's modern work and office environments
is no longer performed individually, by a single employee working alone on his or her task …

In spite of growing needs in many areas, there is a lack of powerful graphical interfaces for
interacting with large and complex sets of objects. Debugging, management and monitoring …

Efficient system mechanisms for distributed object management are becoming increasingly
available. Application developers need appropriate tools to fully exploit the power of these …

The object-oriented approach to system structuring has found widespread acceptance
among designers and developers of robust computing systems. The authors propose a …
