چکیده
Both the Cooperative Computing research group at NTT and the Theory of Distributed Systems research group at MIT are carrying out research on theoretical foundations of distributed computing, with a focus on cooperative group activities in networks. Such group activities range from human social activities in cyber communities to powerful distributed applications involving data sharing and cooperative work. Such activities are often supported by agent communication services, which provide distributed intelligence, or by group communication services, which manage group membership and guarantee coherent communication.

Another critical need is the development of efficient techniques for the construction of large scale genetic circuits. Current molecular biology approaches provide efficient tools for the insertion and study of individual genes through the introduction of plasmids. However, the introduction of more than a few is rare, because the standard scientific questions do not require the assembly of larg...
متن کاملCooperative Computing in Dynamic Environments MIT9904-12
The Theory of Distributed Systems group at MIT pursues research on the development of models, analysis and verification methods, and algorithms for distributed systems. Most of its recent work focuses on systems that are highly dynamic, where participants may join and leave the system and may change location. Moreover, the network topology may change, and components may fail and recover. We add...

Existing general-purpose microprocessors and digital signal processors do not meet all the needs of intelligent personal devices, multimedia and advanced communication applications. Designing special-purpose chips for each application is typically not feasible due to expensive fabrication costs and long turnaround time. A large reconfigurable device with appropriate tools and infrastructure may...
متن کاملA context-sensitive dynamic role-based access control model for pervasive computing environments
Resources and services are accessible in pervasive computing environments from anywhere and at any time. Also, due to ever-changing nature of such environments, the identity of users is unknown. However, users must be able to access the required resources based on their contexts. These and other similar complexities necessitate dynamic and context-aware access control models for such environmen...
