Nowadays, many real problems can be formalized as Distributed CSPs. A distributed constraint satisfaction problem (DisCSP) is a CSP in which variables and constraints are distributed among multiple automated agents. Many researchers assume for simplicity that each agent has exactly one variable. For real distributed problem these techniques require a large amount of messages passed among agents...

Infrared Functional Imaging was applied to the study of Raynaud’s Phenomenon obtaing a simultaneous assessment of the thermal properties of all five fingers of both hands of a group of patients with respect of a control group. The method is based on the use of high-resolution telethermography imaging and allows identification of objective parameters from the re-warming curves of finger immediat...

The purpose of this paper is to open a novel research perspective on reliable distributed systems. The underlying hypothesis is that dynamic models of distributed systems can be established by the use of data mining techniques being applied to data gathered in observing the distributed systems. Feeding observations in an on-line monitoring process into such a model allows predicting upcoming re...
