We propose an infrastructure for collaborative content management and version control for structured mathematical knowledge. This will enable multiple users to work jointly on mathematical theories with minimal interference. We describe the API and the functionality needed to realize a cvs-like version control and distribution model. This architecture extends the cvs architecture in two ways, m...

Web Services technology has the potential to cater an enterprise’s needs, providing the ability to integrate different systems and application types regardless of their platform, operating system, programming language, or location. Web Services could be deployed in traditional, centralized or brokered client server approach or they could be in peer to peer manner. Web Services could act as a se...

A combination of AIDA the Adaptive In formation Dispersal Algorithm and pinwheel scheduling is proposed as a solution to the problem of designing data access strategies in environments where i the data is fre quently updated at a server and needs to be made available to clients upon demand ii the server to client bandwidth far exceeds the bandwidth from any individual client back to the server ...

Smmmiry Clients often provide reasons, justifications, and explanations (i.e., attributions) about the causes of their problems and what they believe needs to be done to ameliorate them. Behavior therapists also frequently generate hypotheses about causal factors contributing to client behavior problems. We discuss the function of attributing in the context of behavior therapy and interpret the...

BACKGROUND There are gaps in knowledge about the extent to which home care nurses' practice is based on best evidence and whether evidence-based practice impacts patient outcomes. AIM The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between evidence-based practice and client pain, dyspnea, falls, and pressure ulcer outcomes in the home care setting. Evidence-based practice was de...

Traditionally, a stand-alone client application is rendered collaborative for members of a team either by sharing its view or by rewriting it as a collaborative client. However, it may not be possible to anticipate in advance all preferences for collaboration, hence such a client may appear confusing to some of the team members. We propose a novel client/server architecture for tk-based applica...

We consider the problem of cooperative data exchange in a group of wireless clients. In this problem each client initially holds a subset of packets and needs to obtain all packets held by other clients. Each client can broadcast its own packets or a combinations thereof to other clients via an error-free broadcast channel. Assuming that clients know which packets are available to other clients...

This paper presents a privacy-friendly and portable mobile authentication solution. It addresses several shortcomings of conventional methods such as passwords and smartcard solutions. It also meets the needs of an increasingly mobile user. Trust in the client computer is minimal and the authentication is entirely delegated to the smartphone, which makes it portable across diverse workstations....

Although ADAPT provides a client-side solution, we lack a uniform model for offering and accessing arbitrary network services (web sites, shell logins, name lookups, video streaming, etc.). Why is that a problem? Today, clients simply assume that a service such as a web server always uses TCP. If, however, services begin to dynamically pick the most suitable protocols at runtime, such assumptio...
