Encapsulating Mobile Objects
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes a technique to e ectively isolate mobile objects or processes that execute downloaded, potentially suspicious programs. It relies on wish lists, trust lists and capability lists. Wish lists are carried along with programs or mobile objects and denote the resources requested by the program to do what it claims to do. Wish lists are transformed into capability lists when downloaded programs are started. Trust lists reside on stations and are used to determine which members of wish lists are taken over into capability lists. The capability lists are enforced during the execution of programs. All lists are symbolic to enable their interpretation in heterogeneous environments. The paper describes the technique, its integration in a Linux environment and rst experiences.

Controlling a Mobile Robotic Hand by Learning Trajectory Velocities
This paper describes an efficient and effective means of achieving autonomous control of a mobile robot that is equipped with a hand for grasping and transporting objects in cluttered environments. For a mobile robot to be able to automatically relocate objects in cluttered environments requires the robot to: (1) find each object to be transported, (2) manoeuvre itself into a position so that g...
متن کاملDistributed, Concurrent Range Monitoring of Spatial-Network Constrained Mobile Objects
The ability to continuously monitor the positions of mobile objects is important in many applications. While most past work has been set in Euclidean spaces, the mobile objects relevant in many applications are constrained to spatial networks. This paper addresses the problem of range monitoring of mobile objects in this setting, in which network distance is concerned. An architecture is propos...
متن کاملAn Intelligent Vision System on a Mobile Manipulator
This article will introduce a robust vision system which was implemented on a mobile manipulator. This robot has to find objects and deliver them to pre specified locations. In the first stage, a method which is named color adjacency method was employed. However, this method needs a large amount of memory and the process is very slow on computers with small memories. Therefore since the previou...
متن کاملEncapsulating distribution by remote objects
Middleware for modern office environments and many other application areas needs to provide support for a myriad of different, highly-mobile objects. At the same time, it should be able to scale to vast numbers of objects that may possibly be dispersed over a large wide-area network. The combination of flexibility and scalability requires support for object-specific solutions that is hardly add...
متن کاملThe Event Processing ODP
In this abstract we present a model for representing heterogeneous event objects in RDF, building on pre-existing work and focusing on structural aspects, which have not been addressed before, such as composite event objects encapsulating other event objects. The model extends the SSN and Event-F ontologies, and is available for download in the ODP portal.
