Tuple-Based Coordination in Large-Scale Situated Systems

Space and time are key elements for many computer-based systems often elevated to first-class abstractions. In tuple-based coordination, Linda primitives have been independently extended with space (with tuples queries spanning spatial regions) or information (mostly tuple scoping). However, recent works in collective adaptive aggregate computing show that can naturally be considered as two intertwined facets of a common coordination abstraction situated distributed systems. Accordingly, we introduce the Spatiotemporal Tuples model, natural adaptation model physically deployed large-scale networks. Unlike prior research, spatiotemporal properties – expressing where when should range has deposited/retrieved turn into specifications processes, carried on cooperation by devices filling computational environment, sustaining operations resilient way, possibly even mobile faulty environments. Additionally, promotes decentralised implementations actually reside they issued, which is good supporting peer-to-peer ad-hoc networks well privacy. this paper, (i) present formalise based unifying notion space-time structure, (ii) provide an implementation ScaFi framework, turning finally (iii) evaluation through simulation rescue case study.
