With increased global interconnectivity, reliance on e-commerce, network services, and Internet communication, computer security has become a necessity. Organizations must protect their systems from intrusion and computer-virus attacks. Such protection must detect anomalous patterns by exploiting known signatures while monitoring normal computer programs and network usage for abnormalities. Cur...

This paper proposes a Distributed Vision System as a Perceptual Information Infrastructure for robot navigation in a dynamically changing world. The distributed vision system, consisting of vision agents connected with a computer network, monitors the environment, maintains the environment models, and actively provides various information for the robots by organizing communication between the v...

Distributed system can also be referred to as the process of running a single computational task on more than one distinct computer. There are a lot of advantages in distributed system including the ability to connect remote users with remote resources in an open and scalable way. A distributed system must be reliable and for it to be truly reliable it must possess the following characteristics...

This article describes the design and some results of implementation of a distributed computing data acquisition and processing system being developed by the Computer technology and system department of Vladivostok State University (Russian Federation). The system is designed to provide data acquisition, processing, and storage in distributed heterogeneous environments. Some of the system’s com...

We propose an architecture for virtual environments that is aimed at the construction of a global, continuous, shared, and persistent information space. Such a system must support three-dimensional interaction of a large number of users and allow integration of user-developed applications. Our system is based on a client-server architecture: The server is responsible for management and maintena...
